Hanging Towel Topper

Pattern Note:

For thicker towels, I use a yarn needle to create a hole to crochet into. That way no fibers are broken.

Cut kitchen towel or hand towel, and put Fray Check(tm) on cut edge (for strength as well). Or use finger tip towels and fold over top edge 1½".

Row 12:

Tr in each st across. Ch 1 turn.
