I have been reading for months about the Dishcloth-A-Day Challenge that is going on on the Best Free Crochet website. The challenge that they are doing there is to make a dishcloth a day for 365 days. I really like the idea and the creative challenge of making each piece different, but what do you do with 365 dishcloths at the end of the year?! I don't have drawer or linen closet space for quite that many.
So, I thought I would broaden it to both dishcloths and potholders and reduce the number of days down to 30. Then, add to that thought the fact that I've always wanted to do a craft exchange with my friends, and I think I've come up with a fun idea. Who wants to join me for a month long, dishcloth / potholder challenge where we make one item a day for that 30 day period and then at the end plan a tea party where we all get together and exchange our crafty treasures?

I know I have a lot of friends out there who knit and/or crochet. I would be open to including sewn potholders too in the mix since I know those can be fun and quick to make and so very useful. What do you think?
I'm working on my first one now and will be posting up later when I get it finished. If you'd like to take part, just leave a quick note in the comments field on this page so we'll know who all wants to participate.
