I'm trying to find some soft cotton yarn to knit baby washcloths using size 5 needles. Can someone direct me to some. I use Sugar and Cream for dishcloths but I want something softer and thinner (if you know what I mean).

KC, the two best of the easily obtainable are either Lion Brand's Cotton-ease or Coats & Clark's Cotton Plus -- either are good subs for SnC, but MUCH softer ... on a size 5, you'll get a good "hand" or feel for the washclothes....

Hope that helps!~
