Linen "Spa" Cloth

This is a very simple, garter stitch cloth, knit from Katia Lino 100% linen. This was a bit of an experiment, to see how the linen knitted up for a cloth. It was (for this not expert knitter) a tad fiddly--very thin, no stretch--and needed to be blocked. But it is a lovely texture, scrubby when dryish, and soft when wet. It dries very quickly. This, and the 100% hemp yarn Roisin has, would make very elegant and useful cloths.
