A great washcloth/dishcloth in my opinion is easy to make and thick enough to do the job. When I made my Daisy Hanging Towel I realized the towel part would make excellent cloths too!
I have included a variety of sizes from a 6″ to an almost 12″ cloth because I have found some people prefer small cloths and some like a big one. You can also make any size you would like by following the tip for custom sizes.
