Cotton washcloths are my go-to project when I need a little mindless stress relief. They are a quick project that you can work on while you are watching TV or waiting at the DMV. And, of course, knit cotton washcloths are a treat to use in the kitchen or bath and they make great housewarming or hostess gifts.
