Handcraft by Grip now presents handmade Dish cloths, crocheted by hand using cotton yarn. These dish and wash cloths can be washed and reused over and over again. Great when aiming for zero waste in the home. I make these as give aways to friends and family, and can also made to order in a variety of colors.
It is easy to make your own cloths, they can be made from many different stitches, and also in mix of stitches. Have a look at Instagram for inspiration.
