Good luck. On the bottom of the disposal, in the center there is a spot for using a hex wrench to turn the blades by hand. You may be able to turn it backwards while pulling on the cloth to get it out. If that doesn't work, you can try to tear as much of it out as you can and try to get it to go down the drain. Use the hex wrench again back and forth to try and dislodge the cloth. A wrench came with the disposal and my be under the sink somewhere. About 6 inches long in a flat S shape.
