Washcloths are computer designed with a special weave that traps water in the localized fibers of the cotton, this allows the cotton to become super-saturated and carry 220% more water than a cotton t-shirt of equal weight.

If they are both 100% cotton and they are the same dimensions ( a 4" x 4" swatch for example) the washcloth would be more absorbent because of its thickness - washcloths are thicker because they are made with more and airier fibers to hold more water. The t-shirt is made of finer and thinner fibers to allow air to pass through and keep you cooler.

Why don't you test yourself? Just take two puddles of water of equal amounts, and try to soak one up with a sleeve and one up with a washcloth. Sounds easier than trying to decipher all the yahoos on this Answers site.
