Abstract: A body washing implement for bathing, comprising an annular sponge member adapted to be deformed to produce two closed loop portions or a generally 8-shaped sponge member having two closed loop portions and a covering cloth of relatively coarsely meshed fabric having the sponge member wrapped therein. The washing implement can be easily knotted in itself or on another washing implement in the form of an elongated strip of cloth such as a towel and facilitates the user of a towel to wash clean a hollow area which tends to be produced in his back when the user of the towel desires to wash his back during bathing.
