Elf is happy to help you clean up. He wants you to stay off the naughty list! He’s is quick and easy to make, and can be finished in a day and ready to get you back on the good list.

Description: Elf Washcloth is knit flat, starting at a corner so there’s not a lot of casting on. The ears are knit as you go by using a small amount of two color knitting. Instructions for the color work are written out and if you have not done 2 color knitting this is a good pattern to test it out. There’s only about four rows of color work. The hat brim is knit using two strands of yarn, scrubby yarn and regular yarn knit together as you go. Strips are made by alternating rows of color and carrying the color up the side, so there are no yarn tails. Pom pom and Eyes are crocheted in a circle and sewn on.
