What Makes a Good Kitchen Dishcloth?

· Aghast kitchen cotton. Owww… (Yes, I know your hands are crying…be assured mine are too!)
· Palm size for good mess cleaning action.
· Not too big not too small. Too big- you’re flinging stuff all over; too small-you are rubbing your palm, not the cloth, on the table.
· Ridges -used for scrubbing the likes of lodge cast iron, without abusing that hard won finish
· Cheap yarn, so you won’t cry about using it that way later
· If you like bleach- white yarn.
· If you are earth friendly- a color that matches your most frequent kitchen stains.
· Or if you are like me- whatever, since it is all going in the kitchen laundry anyway and stains on my dish cloths won’t make me cry.
· Remember kitchen cotton can fade! Keep this in mind or you will be crying later. If it does and you start crying even after I told you, remember it now looks vintage. Vintage is cool.
