Swedish Linen Jacquard Stripe Towel, Red, Växbo Lin

A striped kitchen or hand towel with a wavy texture, woven of 100% linen in Sweden by Växbo Lin. Absorbent and quick-drying, these towels will soften with use, and become more three-dimensional, due to their unique weave.  Växbo Lin represents a recent renewal of Sweden’s once strong textile industry in a locale historically known for its linen cultivation and processing. With guidance from the local mothers and grandmothers who worked in the original scutching factories of the 1950’s, Växbo Lin opened its doors in 1990 to allow linen production to flourish in Trolldalen once more. Measures 50cm by 70cm, machine wash with plenty of water at 60°, do not tumble dry.
