Explore Our Swedish Dishcloths

In Why You Need A Swedish Dishcloth and Clean Your Kitchen with a Swedish Dishcloth, we touched on these fantastic Scandinavian products that every household needs to make cleaning fun. Some of the top selling Scandinavian products that we offer are Swedish dishcloths. These dishcloths aren’t just environmentally friendly, they are also fun to see in your kitchen. So what exactly are they, and why are people going crazy for them? This post covers everything you need to know, with a few of our current favorites to show you what can hang in your kitchen. To see the whole range, check out our wide selection.

What Are Swedish Dishcloths?

These Scandinavian products make the perfect gift or just a nice addition to a kitchen. What’s great about these dishcloths is that they save you money, help the environment, and add a touch of whimsy to your kitchen. They come in many shapes and sizes, and we carry towel sets as well as single cloths. A Swedish dishcloth measures roughly 7 7/8 by 6 5/8 inches, which makes it the perfect size — not so large it overwhelms, not so small it misses the spill. Best of all, it will absorb up to 15 times its own weight in water. That means fewer paper towels, less money spent, and a lot less going in the trash.

Why You Should Purchase These Scandinavian Products

These Swedish dishcloths will become your new favorite piece of equipment in your kitchen. Seriously, you’ll love how fun they look while lasting for a long time. Not only will they wipe up even the dirtiest and largest of spills, but they hold far more liquid than a traditional paper towel. They are a blend of cellulose and cotton, and are 100 percent natural and biodegradable.

When you use a dishcloth to absorb a spill, the cellulose fibers softly and efficiently soak up the liquid. To clean it, you can boil it or run it through the wash to get rid of the bacteria living in your kitchen. Say goodbye to buying bundles of paper products. And you’ll love the patterns, because each one is fun, festive, or a little bit funky.

Our Selection

So what are some of the Swedish dishcloths we offer? We’re happy to show off a few of the festive ones, a couple of the classics, and one or two that everyone gets a kick out of. These efficient and effective dishcloths make cleaning up fun again — and how many things can you say that about?

Dalahorse & Leaves

If you want one cloth that says Sweden the moment someone walks into your kitchen, this is it. The Dalahorse & Leaves dishcloth pairs the most recognizable symbol in Swedish folk art with a simple leaf motif. It works year round, it goes with almost any kitchen, and it is the one we most often see people buy two of — one to use, one to give away.

Halloween Witch Hats and Pumpkins

If you absolutely adore Halloween, then this Swedish dishcloth is the perfect option for wiping up your kitchen. Add a few scare-tastic elements to the room with this festive Scandinavian product. As a compostable natural product, you can feel good about cleaning, helping the earth, and bringing a little bit of fall into your everyday routine.

Lotta’s Christmas

When the holidays come around, swap in something festive. Lotta’s Christmas brings a hit of Nordic holiday color to the kitchen at exactly the time of year the kitchen sees the most traffic. Put a smile on your family’s faces when they come in and spot it hanging by the sink.

Flower Festival

If you’re not ready for fall, we have Swedish dishcloths that will keep spring and summer in your house a few extra months. The Flower Festival dishcloth is covered in blooms, and there is a matching drying mat if you want the set. It’s the perfect kitchen piece to end the summer on.

Dog Days

Do you go absolutely crazy for dogs? If so, we have a Dog Days Swedish dishcloth that is a great addition to any pet-friendly home. This blue, white and black dishcloth has a whole variety of different dogs on it, so we didn’t leave any furry friend out. If cows are more your thing, there’s a Cows design too.

Dishcloth and Towel Sets

If you’re buying for someone else, a set makes a better gift than a single cloth. Our Honey Bees dishcloth and towel set and the Lemons set each pair a cloth with a matching linen towel, which is the sort of thing people are pleased to receive and would never quite get around to buying for themselves.
