Well, I must confess the skull took a bit of work. I had to keep going back to the pattern for the jaw, and it was bigger than I expected, so it took a good four or five hours (I'm not a very fast knitter)... the heart was easy, but I love how cute that dishcloth is, despite its simplicity. ^^

Wait until you start living on your own. Then you'll learn, simply because there'll be no-one else to do it for you. That's how I learned. ^^U
