<p>A personal cleansing implement (10) comprises a tubular piece of hydrophobic diamond-mesh scrim, which is stretched to expand the diamond mesh, gathered along a longitudinal axis (20) of the tubular piece of scrim to form circumferential pleats, and heat set in an expanded and pleated condition to form a substantially rectangular resilient batt (12). Top (14) and bottom surfaces of the batt (12) are bonded together adjacent the perimeter (18) of the batt (12) by a bonding means. Thread stitching or intermittent thermobonding are the preferred bonding means. Ultrasonic bonding is most preferred. A tether loop (30) is connected to the implement (10) for hanging it from a support during drying.</p> |
