Cottage Tea Towels

This is a lovely set of towels for your country cottage or home.  The deep blue, green and turquoise with a hint of white remind Tammy of hot sunny days at her grandparents’ cottage.

The first towel uses all 4 colors in the weft which create a lovely, braided look to the selvedges.  The second towel uses just white for the weft.

As a set, the darker towel is perfect for a hand towel (it hides the dirt!) while the white towel works well for dishes.
