Making tips:
- Prewash your towel before stitching. The linen will soften considerably in this first wash (and more and more with use).
- Our favorite wool threads are the perfect pairing for this linen fabric! They are colorfast, but we recommend hand washing your finished towels to protect your embroidery, with something like Soak.
