Why Our Kitchen Towels?
Made from 100% cotton, our handwoven kitchen towels absorb better than synthetic blends and can be used for years to come. Instead of throwing away paper towels, these are pieces that are as much rooted in sustainability as they are in handmade craftsmanship.
Our cotton kitchen towels improve with washing and regular use, able to withstand the rigors of a busy kitchen. These are pieces designed to be purposeful and practical, developing character along the way.
For those who want a lasting reminder of Nantucket, our handwoven kitchen towels make for perfect housewarming gifts.
How Each Kitchen Towel is Made
Each kitchen towel is brought to life in our second-floor weaving studio above the Main Street shop on Nantucket. Our weavers begin with fine cotton fibers sourced from North Carolina, then choose the colors, pattern, and weave structure that will shape the finished piece.
The loom is prepared by hand before weaving begins. Threads are wound, measured, guided, and tied into place with care. As the textile develops, the cotton reveals its depth of color and softness. The finished kitchen towel is cut from the loom and finished with a Nantucket Looms label sewn by hand.
