Bulky softball cotton yarn from Country Knitting of Maine makes this cloth very nicely on any loom that can make an version of knit stitch and purl stitch using worsted weight yarn. If you must substitute yarn, look for a 100% cotton yarn that is on the heavy end of the #4 worsted weight spectrum if possible. For the dishcloth, loose knitting is desired. I used 3 washers on a Kiss small gauge loom for a gauge of 3.5 stitches/4.6 rows per inch before washing and the cloth is about 8” square after washing. On an All-in-One loom by AKB it will be easier to get the loose stitching using e-wrap stitch. I used continuous U wrap on the Kiss.
