Moppet welcome to the board! I love the picture of your Cockatoo!! I have always wanted one. We have had cockatiels for years but never could afford the bigger birds! How old is he(she?) and what is his name?

I crochet but not dishcloths. Do you use regular yarn and just make squares? I have tons (at least 1 tote) of pieces of yarn.

I like crocheted potholders myself. My DH is very firm that only cotton yarn should be used for potholders and such, because synthetics melt at a low enough temperature to pose a hazard to the potholder user.

Cotton yarn is the secret.
