Di knit cliths dry faster, or does the crochet ones?

I don't know if crocheting is more dense or knitting.

I'm crocheting ones with some air space between the stitches, so they will dry faster.

Here are some Knit cloths-

I think that the knit arn't as heavy as the crocheted ones if you are using S&C or P&C. But both take about the same time drying.

I think maybe the crochet takes a little longer than the knitting because of the heavier stitching. I wring (don't cringe, I do it gently) the water out and put it on a clip and hang it on a cupboard handle by the sink. They dry out in an afternoon and then back in the drawer they go.

Thanks Suzee, I just have always wondered on the knit especially
because I have never had one in knit.

I do the same as you do with my crochet rags

then I just drap it over my dish drainer, or over the spigot
(spigot, you know, that part that the water comes out of
