I've been trying different brands of 8/2 unmercerized cotton and I like the Aurora Earth 8/2 Cotton because it has some texture to it. I use it to make towels and they tends to wash and dry well. There's also an assortment of colors to choose from that seems to be readily available whenever I need them.
