Summertime is all about kicking back and relaxing. Which for me sounds a lot like lounging by the pool with a project in hand. Here's a fun and easy little project to work on despite that summer heat and really doesn't require much concentration. A crochet towel that's made entirely of HDC's!! Perfect for using up any leftover bits of cotton you might have lying around from previous projects. Use them at home or pair them with some handmade soaps to add to gift baskets. If you're ready to try out some more complicated stitches for your cloths find the Stonewash Spa Trio pattern in our Etsy or Ravelry shops!
