Know before you buy
The towel features a soft, breathable, and lightweight texture characteristic of traditional cheesecloth. It is designed to be gentle on surfaces while remaining durable enough for daily kitchen tasks.
Yes, the towel is machine washable. Because it is made from 100% natural cotton, we recommend washing it in cool or warm water and air drying to maintain the integrity of the handmade weave.
At 41x41cm (approximately 16x16 inches), this towel is slightly smaller than a standard rectangular tea towel. Its compact, square shape makes it ideal for drying glassware, wiping down countertops, or serving as a decorative accent.
While the towel is crafted from 100% natural cotton, it is primarily designed as a dishcloth and kitchen accessory. If you intend to use it for food straining, ensure it is thoroughly cleaned and sanitized before use.
As with most 100% natural cotton products, minor shrinkage may occur after the initial wash. To minimize this, avoid high-heat settings in the dryer and opt for air drying whenever possible.
