washrag

I washed my face and lay on the cot with a washrag soaked in cold water on my throbbing eye.

Wouldn't another envelope arrangement of chintz lined with rubber cloth make a good washrag bag or sponge bag?

"If Zaidee was in need of that washrag, she'd be a blackamoor before she gets it," said Eunice.

"Cricket is afraid she'll get her washrag done, if she works on it," laughed Eunice.

Unfortunately he hated water and was said by the naughty-minded to turn seasick at the touch of a washrag.
