Does anyone make these? I would be very interested if I could barter or purchase some. I have handmade soap in different scents to barter or let me know. I am looking for size 10x4 inches. Thanks girls :)

I've never heard of those. I do crochet. I'll have to look that up. Thanks.
I hope you find some.

LOL, that depends how it comes out!!!! Most of my yarn is stored, I only had a brown colored yarn. I'll try that. Have you made one? How good are they?

Teri,
Thanks for posting the link. I was looking at the replacement sheets today and just could not see spending so much for a wet towel!

I love it! I need to make me a couple. I will also pass this along to my DIL.

On ravelry.com at http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/search#query=swiffer&sort=best there are 2 pages of different designs for Swiffer Covers - both knit and crochet.

I make them Sharon and could barter with you. They are easy to make and it takes me an hour to make one.

I use them for dusting around the house too. It's just like the knitted or crochet dish cloths, You just add pockets on the end for the swiffer duster!
