This series of towels is inspired by my new home and the incredible gardens it came with. The previous owner spent decades growing and shaping the land that surrounds the house, and the connection between the indoors and outdoors is one of the (many) reasons moving here was an adventure I couldn't turn down.
As you might have noticed, the photos aren't as clean and professional as my usual standard. I've been a bit busy with the move (et al) and I confess my priorities have shifted. Maybe spending hours taking and editing photos that still never quite perfectly show the color and textures of my work isn't where I want to be spending my time. Perhaps I'd rather bring you into my garden - imperfections and all? Anyways. They're still the same amazing towels. If precise color matching is important to you, you're always welcome to come see them in real life! Just send me a message :)
These kitchen towels are handwoven from 100% cotton yarn. They are durable and absorbent, but still bright, modern and fun! They can be machine washed and dried because they're meant to be used and enjoyed, and make time in the kitchen even more fun. The towels are 17"x25", they shrink slightly smaller than my polkadot and prism towels due to the unique honeycomb texture. But that texture contributes to extra absorption and drying power, and they'll perform as well as any towels I offer!

About all my items:
This item was handwoven by me on a floor loom, mechanically identical to ones used in the 1800s. The art of weaving is considered one of the oldest technologies in the world, and the fundamentals have changed very little in that time. Each item is constructed entirely by me, and begins its journey as loose thread eventually transformed into whole cloth. Every strand of yarn is carefully threaded into the loom, and every inch of fabric is created by building one thread on the next, interweaving them to create intricate patterns. I love weaving precisely because of how tactile it is, and how much time I get to spend touching the yarn and enjoying the colors. Because of this, every textile I weave is a pleasure to touch and look at, and is a unique creation that represents hours of a labor of love, years of study and practice, and centuries of culture and technology.
