Using these Ferm Living Hale tea and dish towels is a breeze. For drying dishes, simply grab a towel and gently pat the wet dishes dry. When wiping down your kitchen counters, use the towel in a circular motion to get rid of dirt and spills. When it comes to maintenance, you can toss these towels in the washing machine. However, to keep their colors vibrant and fabric in good shape, it's best to use a gentle cycle and mild detergent. Avoid using bleach as it might damage the natural fibers. Also, let them air - dry whenever possible. If you need to return the towels, you have 30 days from the purchase date to do so.
