THE SWEDISH ECO-FRIENDLY DISHCLOTH: The dry sponge cloth was invented in 1949 by the Swedish engineer Curt Lindquist, who discovered that a mixture of natural cellulose and cotton (70% cellulose and 30% cotton) can absorb an incredible 15 times its own weight in water. These thin Swedish dishcloths have had a presence in most Scandinavian homes since then. They make a great alternative to paper towels for general wiping up and light cleaning and are perfect for homes, cottages, kitchens, boats and bathrooms. When they become wet, they are very soft and they also dry very quickly. Quick drying fabric prevents bacteria from spreading. These can be machine washed at 140 degrees F and re-used or washed in the dishwasher. When new, these dark dishcloths should be washed alone or with dark colors. When they are ready for disposal, simply toss in your compost heap where they will biodegrade. 100% biodegradable and fully compostable means eco-friendly. Beautiful and affordable for gift giving. These sponge cloths are made in Europe. Our Swedish dishcloths are individually hand-dyed by Ann Back in Finland with gentle food-safe dye. Each one measures approximately 6.5 x 6 inches when dry and expand to about 7.9 x 7 inches when wet.
