Operation Christmas Child Shoe box idea: WASHCLOTH~

Most of the items are made using a thin,or medium size hook.  I like the plastic hooks best because they are easier on your fingers!  Yarn is thin to medium and "mixed fibers."  I try to use all cotton for washcloths, but you can use mixed, as well.  My washcloths are a small crocheted square with a row of single crochet attached at one end for a hook.  You can sew on a small cloth "heart," if you would like to jazz it up.  If you make it extra long, you can fold it 3/4 to 1/2 way up (tack well at tops of pouch).   Sew the sides up with a plastic yarn hook.   This will be a pocket for the bar of soap!
If we start early, we can get alot of this made in time for the boxes!  I shoot for the first week of November to have projects done.
