Usage

Drying

Dish towels can be used to dry the player when they are displaying the wet moodle after being caught in the rain in-game, which will produce a wet dish towel.

The wet dish towel will dry over time.

Cleaning

Dish towels can be used with bleach to clean blood splatters off of floors and walls.
