If you have any old rags lying around at home then you can put them to use by making a dishcloth out of them, and to add scrubbing effect to it use some tulle material also.
Here’s one dishcloth that I just made out of my daughter’s old leggings and some cut-up jute ribbon:
So basically all you need to do is cut the rags into a yarn, cut the tulle or jute (or whatever harder material you’re using) also into a yarn and use the two yarns altogether to crochet or knit a dishcloth. This is my second DIY dishcloth already and the last one served me for about 1 month so I think it’s worth a try.
