These would be great for a bathroom, actually. I would make a gift as such buy a nice handmade bar of natural, herbal or infused soap and wrap this beautiful "dish" cloth around it and tie it with a grosgrain ribbon. Nobody needs to know it's meant as a dishcloth.

I would hate to use something this pretty to wash dishes - This would make a nice pad to put under a bowl of hot food.

used this for topper on my gifts in a jar. Just weave sm ribbon through and tie on jar. Used some Christmas colors, and lots of scraps. My friends 2 gifts and my jars looked great.

I like it, but I believe I will crochet it in brown and gold for a sunflower!

I'd like to put this Dahlia dishcloth on Pinterest but it says your site won't allow me. :(

GREAT FOR USING UP ODDS & ENDS OF YARNS!
