These beautiful and locally handmade cotton yarn dishcloths are knitted in Rockingham by the very lovely Jan (generally while watching the footy!). :0)
These cloths are a plastic-free and long-lasting replacement to microfibre cloths and plastic-based sponges.
Benefits:
Below is Jan's info about her product.
I began by hand knitting a few just for myself, improving on the pattern, size, strength and thus, durability, as I went. After now using them for a period of time, I really love:
- the way they clean with a slight scouring effect,
- their durability, (I'm still using the original few I produced 18 months ago with plenty of wear left in them still!),
- the hygiene factor, by regularly rotating two or three it means always having access to a clean and fresh dishcloth,
- their reusable factor, making them economical and a great way of reducing landfill instead of using disposable items and therefore helping the planet,
- how they make a useful and novel gift item,
- the choice of colours,
- their versatility as they also make great general cleaning cloths with all the above benefits!
My wish is that they are used and enjoyed widely as one step towards making a small difference to the future of our planet - for ALL of our kids and grandkids. ❤
Jan grew up in Vic Park, raised her 4 kids in Busselton, lives in Rockingham and has 7 grandkids.
Hi folks Carol is very happy with the hoe can’t keep her out of the garden. When we get some more spare coin we come have another look round. Cheers Keith….
The bamboo hair brush is amazing.
I no longer get static in my long hair which is great as I was getting some minor electric shocks before, but they have all stopped since using the brush. My hair is shiny and my scalp gets a massage each time which feels wonderful.
Totally recommend this product.
Excellent quality. Easy enough to clean. No problem using in our Pixie. Making up pods is quite simple. We’re still trying to find the right coffee to use. Overall - love it!
Love the fact that you followed through with your promise to get in touch with me when potato seed was back in stock. I’ve received my seed and look forward to planting them out soon.
It is so great to be able to use compostable bin bags. I use the small for my bench bin and the large for bigger amounts. They are easy to use and really good for the environment.
Fantastic that it is made of recycled fabric at an affordable price.
Thank you for the great customer service with a lovely handwritten note and a perfect lid for my broken one. Thank you
This addition to my kitchen sill is perfect.. handy and so lovely micro herbs already !!
well-crafted good looking tool that is well up to pretty strenuous demands. it cuts a wider swathe through the weeds for the effort expended and the light weight allows me to work longer.
a good buy that suits my purposes
It's reasonable price and good quality. I found a great use for my climbing vegetable :)
The elephant garlic has been in the ground about a month or so now. It took a few weeks to emerge but now it is going gang busters. I’m looking forward to being able to taste the harvest.
If you haven't tried this little beauty - you should. Great scrubbing ability, we can thread it thru the handle of the tap and it can air dry. We wash on the top rack of our dishwasher and hang on the clothesline to dry and get UV - lasts forever. Great price. Why wouldn't you try one?
Received 31 May 2022. Placed in veg garden immediately and have not seen the cabbage white butterflies in the garden nor anywhere near it since.
So far so good
Received Tues 31May 2022, planted potatoes the following day. so easy
This seed box is generously sized to fit many seed packets and able to be varied by taking some dividers out, if desired.
It’s an attractive way to keep seeds, and also so nice to have something Australian made and sustainably sourced by the UR team.
Thank you
