I absolutely love this pattern and have been eyeing everything with it. This tea towel was well priced and is a great addition to my kitchen. Next I plan on purchasing the kaiku pattern on a shower curtain.

The print is beautiful but i didn't read that the towels were half linen and half cotton. They do not wash and dry well; rough not soft and need to be ironed to look nice. I do not have much time to iron towels although they are beautiful!
