Free Pattern: Frank Hanging Towel

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. Ever since I made my Frank & Bride Cloths in 2018 I have wanted to make a hanging towel to match.

I decided to make “Frank” similar to some of my other cloths so the bottom opens up to a nice sized towel. With two guys in the house they won’t use it unless it “looks like a cloth” lol. This pattern was #41 in our “weekly wash” event.

Do you carve or paint pumpkins? Please comment and let me know.

I love a lit pumpkin on the porch for trick or treaters 🎃 

My grand daughter and sil are both allergic to pumpkins so they paint theirs. A giant storm destroyed theirs so I carved them one to have out tonight (my daughter is going to light it). 
I made mine into a witch 🧙‍♀️
