Free Knit - Reusable Dish Cloth

Reusable Dish Cloth : knit your own dish cloth to reduce landfill and waste

 

Free Knitting Pattern - Reusable Dish Cloth

Reduce landfill by crafting these reusable, extra large dish cloths. Soft cotton cloths are a real treat to use every day. Unlike disposable cloths, when these get a little dirty, simply run them through the washing machine and hang on the washing line to sanitise and reuse for years to come. 

You’ll get 2 dish cloths from the 3 balls of yarn.
