An allover shell texture and a generous size make this facecloth perfect for waking up your skin in the morning, or for make-up removal at night. For intermediate knitters, the project is a great way to sample new techniques. An optional I-Cord loop worked into one corner makes it convenient to hang up close at hand. Valley Yarns Leverett, a cotton-linen blend, offers crisp stitch definition along with durability and breathability.
