Very clever! I like the bowl too, where'd you manage to find a pink bowl? Also, did you knit or crochet the dishcloth (can you tell I can do neither of these things, lol)

Hi all...glad you like...just couldn't resist it never seen a pale soft pink before....the bowl was from a store in Shrewsbury called Charlies and yep its knitted 25 stitches on large needles and did about 25/30 rows of just plain knit sts...made the 2 in about an hour n a half

Already had the cut t-shirt yarn found it when l tidied up my tiny craft room (had become a bit of a dumping ground)
