As kitchen hand towels go, these are a game-changer. They are looped towels with a peppered join, designed to go on your oven door handle (or range if you are glamorous enough to have an Aga or similar). They will never fall on the floor again. They dry really quickly and look lovely.They measure 44cm wide and 40cm long (when peppered) and they are an 85/15% mix of cotton and linen. Wash hot if you like.
