The supplier's sizes are 70 × 137 cm for the bath towel, 70 × 33 cm for the hand towel and 33 × 33 cm for the square towel. Easy Life Markets sells the set in twelve colours, from white and grey to wine red, yellow and orange.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLong staple cotton is the selling point here. Longer cotton fibres spin into a smoother, stronger yarn, which generally means softer towels that shed less and keep their loops longer. The ribbed border, with several raised bands across each towel, gives the set a classic look. The supplier's photos show each colour as a tall, neat stack of six towels on a white or bathroom background.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat Is in the Box\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis needs a clear explanation, because the supplier's information does not quite agree with itself.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe specification describes a \u003cstrong\u003ethree-piece set\u003c\/strong\u003e: one square towel, one hand towel and one bath towel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe listing has two set options, \"3times\" and \"6times\".

The higher the number, the finer the thread. For towels, yarn of around 16 to 21 count makes a chunky, very absorbent loop, while 32 count gives a finer, softer loop with a smoother feel. Finer yarn on its own does not make a towel thicker or more absorbent. That depends on how many loops are woven in and how heavy the towel is, which the supplier does not state.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eLooking After Cotton Towels\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWash before use.

Long staple yarn resists this better than short fibres, but it still helps to wash with a little less detergent, add an extra rinse now and then, and dry the towels with movement, either in a tumble dryer or on a line in a breeze. If a towel has already gone stiff, a hot wash with a cup of white vinegar instead of detergent usually strips the residue and brings back the soft feel. Avoid drying towels flat on a heated rail for days at a time, as the loops bake flat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho It Suits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShoppers who care about yarn quality and like a classic ribbed border, households wanting a strong colour such as wine red or orange, and anyone putting together a towel gift.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many towels do I get?\u003c\/strong\u003e The specification says three.
