hooded towel

A breathable, quick-drying towel for baby and beyond, with a hood to keep little heads warm and dry. Four layers of gauze make this towel thick enough to be absorbent, while lightweight enough to take up less space in the washing machine, on the shelf, and in the suitcase. Most hooded towels are a diamond shape, but this one is a triangle, which means extra width for wrapping. Our product photos show a range of texture on our hooded towels, from subtly crinkled to very crinkled. This is because the gauze texturizes over the course of multiple launderings, so we wanted our photos to reflect these different stages! 34” (from peak of hood to bottom hem) x 78” (across bottom) prior to laundering 32” x 74” after laundering* Fits the average size child up to age 3 + 100% GOTS-certified organic cotton, 4 layers thick + Machine wash cold, delicate cycle. Tumble dry low. + Ethically sewn in India * The crinkled state of gauze is achieved with washing and drying. The weave of the fabric appears flat prior to washing. It crinkles up with laundering, and may become more textured via successive launderings--achieving the appearance you see in our product photos. (We include this information on an insert that comes with the product.) Read about gauze thickness here.
