Caring for my Handwoven Turkish TowelUpdated 9 months ago

How do I 'break-in' my Turkish Towel? 

For information on why we ask you to 'break in' your towel, click here

We strongly encourage a pre-soak our towels in cold water for 4-6 hours followed by a cold-water wash and line dry. 


How do I wash my towel?

Once your towel has been pre-soaked to 'break it in', you'll only need to wash them in regular wash cycles with similar colors. 


Can I put my towel in the dryer?

Tumble drying on a delicate setting is fine and will assist in the ‘breaking in’ of your towels. 

Please note, dryer usage can often contribute to a slight shrinkage of cotton and linen textiles so keep heat to a delicate setting.


Can I dry clean my towels?

Sure! 


Help! I have a stain on my towel!

Use any store-bought stain treatment, but be careful to avoid bleach. A paste made with baking soda and vinegar also works wonders and is an all natural way to remove stains.
