I bought the floursack towels on a whim and loved them so much I reorder them again and again. They come in handy for so many kitchen uses and the array of colors is fantastic.

These are large, fairly thin tea towels, great for drying and polishing glassware. That is, before you wash them. Then they are great for drying Barbie dishes. Maybe you aren't supposed to wash them in the washing machine{which I did} but they do get smaller!! They are, however, nice towels, nice colors and ship quickly.

These flour sack towels work well and hold up to a lot of use. They keep their color even after repeated washings. I hang several of these in my kitchen and use them instead of paper towels. They wipe up most messes quickly and dry well.

I bought these for our son thinking they were similar to the ones I've purchased at various shops in our area that have well made homespun kitchen towels, or even similar to the real flour sack towels that I have. Unfortunately, I was wrong. Our son informed me that these were very thin and cheaply made, nothing like the towels mentioned above. Next time I will just purchase the towels at home and ship them.

I ordered two sets (total six) of these because I wear kimono and needed large towels for padding my western figure into a tube. These teatowels are light (very important for temperature concerns) and they fold and layer great. The towels are thin but when folded they are a good workable thickness that won't mat down like terry cloth will. I folded mine twice length-wise and they worked like a charm. The fabric is somewhat rough (but not irritatingly so) which provides gripping friction for the layers while folding.

I ordered the black/grey/white set because of the neutral tones, but the padding is hidden under other layers so it doesn't matter what colour you pick.
