This crochet cleaning cloth pattern is perfect for dusting, dishes, or any other cleaning needs. I love these for a quick and easy project. I use these weekly in my own home to dust. I find that the texture of the stitches picks up dust so nicely.
notes
I originally developed this pattern because I wanted to implement more sustainable products into my home. Making these cotton rags was a great start. As a college student, money can be tight, so always opting for the sustainable choice isn’t an option for me. However, I have found that making smaller changes with what I can afford is good enough for me right now.
