Note
"A washing mitt is a piece of terry cloth, shaped like a pouch that the hand fits in. It is used as an aid in washing the body, for example, to apply soap to the body, and to remove the soap with a rinsed out washing mitt. It can also be used to freshen up the face. Usually, a towel is used to dry off the body afterwards.

A washing mitt is especially useful for people that like to wash themselves at a sink, and do not wish to spill or waste much water.

The washing mitt is also a good tool for nurses and caregivers, who wash their patients in their beds.

An expansion on the washing mitt is the showercloth, with which also the back can be washed." - (en.wikipedia.org 06.01.2021)
