What more do you need? 

Gin?  lol (working on that one, btw lol)

and what a lovely colour!

We used to knit dishclothes when I was at junior school in spider stitch if I remember rightly. Can't remember how to do the stitch now, and don't suppose you can get the special dishcloth yarn anyway. Good way of getting the cloths there though Lowlander. How do you make your soap from soapwort?

You can get dishcloth yarn now. I get mine off ebay. I have a lifetimes worth of the stuff  It knits up into good insulated pot holders as well if you double them up and crochet an edge round to seal them.

Always some lurking in the charity shops for a few pennies I find. Often the ends of balls, but stripes are good :)

I almost didn't look at this. I thought - you want a dishwasher if you're off-grid? :-) 

Old net curtains make pretty good scrubbing cloths, and not bad in the bath as a thingy for scrubbing skin to get rid of dead cells, chicken poo, wellie slag etc.  I wanted to put defoliator, but know thats not right.....

Exfoliator.

Exfoliator and a damn fine idea - especially with nylon curtains at $2.00 a pair at the charity shop!! Must give it a try!
