Tawashi Cloth

by Tomato Lady on April 16, 2009


Not absorbent, but scrubs like nothing I’ve ever seen. Especially good if you have any of that leftover baby yarn with the fine thread woven in. Texture is everything.

And in case you’ve guessed my secret, yes, this was going to be a baby blanket gift originally. But I *hate* patterns that expect me to evenly join a bunch of squares, because I can’t. So instead, I scrub pots with them, muttering to myself, “I hate dried on food AND crocheted squares!! I don’t care which one of you disintegrates first! You both deserve it!” Maybe that’s over the top. But maybe it’s not.
