Fall into Autumn topic #2

When you knit or crochet dishcloths, washcloths or face clothes, what do you use? What size needle or hook? Wood? what type? Metal? Plastic? A specific Brand? Why do you love that needle or hook so much? Is there one you are dying to try? Is there a particular yarn you love and use all the time for cloths? What is so special about it?

I have a couple of sets of needles that I like to use. One is an old set of Boye needles in plastic (maybe Balene 1) and the other is a set of rosewood needles from Turn-of-the -Century in size 8.I love both of them greatly. I usually use Sugar and Cream for kitchen cloths and Luna by Cascade for face cloths. I received a skein of Peaches and Cream from DDOS swap and it seems to be very similar to S&C. I would love to try any other cottons out there.

We're back! It's always hard coming home from vacation, but we had a wonderful time.
