Washcloth Wednesday Part 4 - Windmill Washcloth

Today is the final installment of Washcloth Wednesday! Today's pattern is the Windmill Washcloth. This one was a little more work to get just right. The pattern is based off of my Windmill Face Scrubby, but the scrubby is round. After a couple tries, I ended up with this pattern, and I love how it looks! Don't forget to grab your copy of the Spa Collection E-book. It's on sale for 50% off through Friday!
