A little nuts. A lot less waste. The Acorns Swedish Dishcloth by Cose Nuove features a cheerful parade of orange oak leaves and tiny acorns, designed by Megan Kampa. It's autumn in the kitchen, minus the leaf raking.

Invented in Sweden back in the 1940s, these clever little kitchen workhorses are made from 70% cellulose and 30% cotton. They soak up spills, tackle messy counters, and make paper towels look downright irresponsible. One dishcloth can replace over a dozen rolls of paper towels, and it's machine-washable and dishwasher-safe, so it'll happily stick around for months.

Made and screen-printed in Sweden with water-based inks, it's fully compostable when its cleaning career comes to an end. Good design, less waste, and a little woodland charm. We're nuts about it.

Toss them in the dishwasher or washing machine — they can handle the heat (up to 90°C / 195°F). Lay flat to air dry for the most extended life. Tumble dry if you must, but fair warning: it shortens their career as your kitchen sidekick.

Megan Kampa is a Minneapolis-based designer and illustrator with a love for bold color, playful patterns, and a healthy dose of nostalgia. Working from her mid-century modern home, she draws inspiration from nature, vintage design, and the retro treasures she uncovers on her estate-sale adventures. Her work has a cheerful, graphic sensibility that makes even the most ordinary objects feel a little more special. Case in point: her Acorns design for Cose Nuove, which gives humble oak leaves and acorns a rather stylish second career as kitchen cleanup crew. Who knew wiping down the counter could look this good?
