Classic Mitered Corner Dishtowels in Watercolor Linen
Linen dishtowels are an everyday kitchen essential: soft, absorbent, and useful. If you are going to use something every day it may as well be beautiful, and that’s where our Classic Mitered Corner Dishtowels in Watercolor Linen come in!
This pattern is easy to follow with a video to demonstrate the mitered corner step. Each dishtowel comes together neatly and quickly and has a hanging loop cleverly tucked into one corner.
Use our Watercolor Linen Bundle, which includes 22 fat quarters, to sew up your own beautiful stack of Classic Mitered Corner Dishtowels and have one handy every day! -Molly

Beautiful linen
Do you prewash the linen?
Hi, Heidi!
Thank you for your question! Yes, we recommend that you prewash, dry, and iron the fabric before starting. Please let us know if you have further questions and thank you for writing in!

Hello Purl Soho!
I have been a fan of your beautiful, contemporary and elegant site and projects for a very long time. But I’ve always wondered when I see linen projects for the kitchen. Is linen really absorbent? Am I going to be able to dry a dish with these beautiful dish towels?
If anybody has done this, can you please let me know how well they work?
Thank you and please continue making such quality and elegant work. It is greatly appreciated.
Hi Su,
Thanks for writing in! I have made a host of these lovely dishtowels over the years and I find that they work well for just about all of the kitchen needs including drying dishes!
I hope that this helps and thank you for your kind words!

anxious to make some of these
is this bundle available anymore? I see the original date of 2016. Am I late to the party. I am just finding time to be creative again. ~n
Hi Nicol,

Hi!
I love this linen. Unfortunately the bundle is not available any more. Would you please let me know if the bundles will be available in the future?
Thank you so much
Hi Beatrice,
Thanks for reaching out. I’m afraid that we’ve stopped carrying the bundles for this project! We’re so sorry for the inconvenience, but I wanted to let you know that we do still sell the fabric, Watercolor Linen, by the yard. You can find it right here. Hope this helps!
All the best,
Lili
