I recently found out that crocheted tea towels really work! I had used crochet dishcloths before, but never tried one as a dishtowel. I thought they wouldn’t absorb much water, but I was wrong! They are so good at absorbing and drying dishes and even drying hands!
So I looked around and found 10 free patterns for crocheted tea towels to make. Cotton or linen yarn are the best for these.
Let me know how your tea towel worked out and what you think! What type of yarn did you use?
