Remember those acrylic sponges that I was so excited about? As exhibited in a previous post...
I started to crochet some and here's what they look like! I made a few to give as thank you gifts to some friends. I think they could make a great gift for eco-conscious friends.
After making a few and gifting them, I thought I better start using it so I know how effective it is. Well...now I am updating my "review" of these tawashis. I think the concept might be a good one, however, I'm not sure if they are actually effective at cleaning in a household that eats full fat meats. Full fats = lots of grease. My girlfriend who had turned me onto the tawashi lives in a vegetarian household so I can see how a simple tawashi sponge would be great to clean her dishes. I've been using mine for a week and spraying vinegar to cut the grease. The result was not spectacular. I finally broke down and bought some dish detergent. While I love the concept of the tawashi for simple dish washing. I will need to stick with detergent to clean my greasier dishes. The tawashi just did not cut it.
