These 4 towels are soft and absorbent!  Just what the Handmaiden ordered.  Three shades of our own American Maid™ Naturally Colored Cotton combine to make a sophisticated towel that is fun and easy to weave.  The Dark Brown and Light Brown yarns will darken overtime instead of the usual fading. How wonderful is that? These yarns are beautiful together and we hope these lovely towels are as fun to weave as they are to use.
