Richmond Ticking Matte

I've washed this thing maybe a dozen times now and it hasn't pilled or lost its shape at all. The 18x28 size is just right for drying a full load of dishes without getting soggy halfway through.

The cotton actually absorbs water instead of pushing it around like my old microfiber towel did. It's been through maybe ten washes already and hasn't pilled or gone stiff. The ticking stripe looks sharp hanging on the oven handle too.

The 18x28 size is bigger than my old tea towels, so it actually covers a decent stack of dishes. Cotton's a little stiff right out of the wash, but it softened up after a few uses.
