Guess what everyone will be getting for stocking stuffers for Christmas. I found this dishcloth pattern just in time to make a few to gift. I think I can make at least four. So that the recipients will not fight over them, I plan on making them in different colors.

Every dish cloth or hot pad project I see in such a pretty design I want to make it. Then, I don't want anybody to use it! After all the work put into it, these are just too adorable to risk harming them.

First thing I thought of was how cute this guy was, then I wanted to know what the dimensions were. I guess I can get a general idea by referencing the pic of it on the wooden dish rack. Great that it can be used as a hot pad, oven mitt OR the dish cloth. Wanna make a great gifting idea with this? Give it along with a new baking sheet with a cookie (dry) mix inside a Mason jar. A total crafters dream.

Hi there, It seems that the pattern creator did not indicate the size of the final product. Feel free to contact Lily Sugar n' Cream directly - they may have a better answer to your question. Thanks! - Julia from FaveCrafts
