More corn dish cloths!

I have decided to give up on the cotton dish cloth and expand my horizons because:

• they don't last very long at our house.
• they get stinky.
• they fade and get out of shape.

So, my new quest is with corn yarn because:

• it is naturally antibacterial.
• it comes in vibrant colors.
• it has a gentle abrasive quality that is great for getting food off of dishes
• and I get bored easily and corn seems a bit more exotic than cotton:)

Here is the yarn I found at 3 Kittens Needle Arts. It is 100% corn and they have many beautiful colors. Here is what I chose.

On the label it says "Made in the USA from imported fibers". So, we don't have enough corn in our country? Is this special corn? I'm going to have to investigate.
