i guess it just about what you pay for washclothes, i buy mine from walmart in big packs, for $3.94 with that pack i can make 6 washclothes, you can buy some very expensive washclothes, its alot cheaper to dye your own colors!
you will need 3 washclothes! ive been making them for 3 years and they sale really good! lay them on top of each other roll one at a time keeping it tight, when you have all of them rolled pull together and to keep the shape use a rubberband untill dry, then take the rubber band off and put you ribbion on then bag it. its just something differnt then a dipped bear!
