Knokkon Liisa Face Towel

Liisa Face Towel

The Liisa face towel is a waffle weave face towel that adds a touch of luxury to your day. The waffle texture brings out the best of the nettle and cotton fabric blend, making it soft and comfortable against the skin. The silky, muted sheen of the waffle weave and the off-white colour make the towel suitable for a wide range of homes and interiors. It’s fast-drying, so it’s suitable as a hand towel. The Liisa face towel is pre-washed, so it won't shrink much more in the wash. The towel softens with washing and becomes more comfortable to use.

Care instructions:

Wash Knokkon’s textiles separately from other laundry, as natural fibres may shed lint, especially after the first few washes. It’s a good idea to fill the washing machine half full so that any loose fibres are properly rinsed out. Wash at 40°C. Does not need to be tumble dried, drying flat or on a line is sufficient. No dry-cleaning or bleaching. Iron up to 150°C (two points).

One day in July 2017, I read a comment on a thread about nettles as a source of yarn. Today, Knokkon is an online shop for ecological nettle and hemp-made yarns and products for consumers and businesses. Read more about Knokkon from this link.
