Pottery and Knitting


Do any of you have a pretty potter bowl you like to display on your kitchen counter? How about using it as a 'garbage bowl' a la Rachael Ray? Well, I do.

If you have one of these bowls, turn it over and look at the bottom. See that clay colored surface? That surface will scratch your counter top. I have two scratches to prove it. If you use your bowl for a garbage bowl, you will find yourself tugging it around the counter.

My advice? Knit a mini round dishcloth (doily) that is just big enough to keep the bottom of the bowl from sitting on the cabinet. I already had one and it works great. I started out with a normal sized square washcloth and it looked tacky. This one looks like it is supposed to be there!
