Keeping Dishrags Clean

RE: Keeping Dishrags Clean Post By Grandma Margie (Guest Post) (06/15/2006) I buy a package or bundle of cheap white washcloths to use as dishcloths. Each night before I go to bed I make sure the dishcloth is rinsed out and draped across the center divider in my kitchen sink. The next morning it is dry. I toss it in the dirty clothes basket with any other whites I have waiting to be washed. I get a fresh washcloth/dishcloth out of the drawer every morning. I do the same with my plain white dishtowels. Everything is white so nothing fades or can't be put in a load with bleach. Works for me!

Is there any way to keep the wet rags from molding while waiting for a full load of dishcloths to wash?

I guess it would depend on what material is used for the dish rag.

Do you clip them to the racks with a clothes pin or what?
