“Cold, hard cash” turns into a “comfy coin” with a knitted afghan! Actually, this is a dollhouse-sized item knit in silk thread. It can be a washcloth, handkerchief or an antimacassar on a dollhouse chair. Silk (and rayon) threads drape a little better in 1/12th scale than cotton thread. Magnifiers are recommended for this work. Honestly, knitting dollhouse items isn’t that hard and it’s fun!
Skills needed: cast on, knit, purl and bind off in knit stitch.

Gauge is not important in this pattern. Any block-able yarn/thread will work. Make a swatch to check size and appearance.

About 10 yards of Soie Gobelins thread is needed for this item in the stated gauge.
