Knitted dishcloths the way grandma used to make them. That’s what I thought when I knitted these for the first time. It was just like when I used to go to my grandma’s house and watch her knit dishcloths. It has become very popular again to knit or crochet your own dishcloths to save the environment and ourselves from microplastics and other crap that is nowadays put in the disposable cloths you buy in droves.
