Sunny stripes.
A good tea towel is absorbent, quick-drying, and breathable. A great one is all those things, and beautiful to boot. This cheerful, Japan-made linen-cotton blend towel is the one we want 10 of around all the time for wiping hands, drying plates, and mopping up counter spills. Fold it up for neat storage, or hang it on a nail using the small tab.

Beautiful
Purchased for lining my sourdough bread forms. Almost too beautiful to use for that. Beautifully made w quality linen. So happy with this purchase.
lovely towels
I only wish they were larger! They are a little too small to hang on a towel rack. Good for a towel hook.
Pretty nice towel
This towel looks nice and we use it often but is nothing too special. I wouldn’t get another one for the price.
