Embroidery and drawn-thread work delineated by hand on an elegant, finely textured linen fabric the colour of champagne or, if preferred, white. Daisies of the same colour line up across the width of the towel to be framed by little shaded satin-stitch coils. The quality of the fabric permits a geometric game to be played by the drawn-thread work so praiseworthily executed by hand. The sides are finished with hemstitches.
