My pathetic dishrag

Well here it is.. my pathetic attempt at a dishrag. I started out with the stockinette stitch. Then I kept forgetting where I was at... did I knit last? or did I purl last. I thought I remembered but then after doing a few more rows I looked and ahhhh i screwed up. lol.. I didnt know how to bind off so I watched a tutorial video at www.knittinghelp.com and was able to figure it out YAY! So.. this is it lol.. exciting looking huh? I will tell you its a very good rag to wipe the tables and counter tops with! Ive been using it and although ugly it works well lol. Im working on something else right now... hopefully it will turn out and I can post pics.. stay tuned lol

I think it looks great for your first. I have a little tip if you are open to it. . .
If you look at your knitting while it's facing you and you are about to knit if you see "u"'s you need to purl, and if you see "v"'s you need to knit for stockinette. hth
btw I'm really proud of you for learning this all so quickly and for J for teaching you so well.
Happy knitting!
