Another facecloth for Chris, why buy them when I can knit one! This one was made in Sirdar Spree Marshmallow using the Brick Stitch Pattern, details of which I’ve included below the picture. Chris has a thing about bricks, it’s rare that we walk past a building without him commenting on whether it’s Flemish Bond or some other exotic style! And yes there is some pink, Chris likes pink, but not as much as he likes bricks!!
