So was the counter soaking wet and the bowl was mostly emptied? Were the feet lower than the bottom of the bowl?
After water absorbs up through the fabric and goes up and over the rim of the bowl, it will start to drip out of the feet. The feet can absorb more water out of the bowl as it drips out. So they can slowly pull water out of the bowl, then it’s lost to the counter.
A similar dynamic is why you can make sure cups with lids dry out by leaving a paper towel half in and half out of the lid. It makes the inside as dry the air outside.
