7 Ways to Sew a Stay Put Hand Towel For The Kitchen

October 22, by Larissa Coleman. 5 Comments

We’ve all been through the routine of either not being able to find a dish towel in the kitchen, or having trouble with it staying on the stove handle.  Don’t let that happen again.   Have you ever heard of a Stay Put towel or a hanging kitchen hand towel?  Check out these 7 sewing patterns and take some time this weekend to make your own stay-put kitchen towels.  Never again will you be searching for a lost towel in your kitchen or picking one up from the dirty kitchen floor.

Dish towels with hangers are perfect for anyone with little kids who are learning to hang their towels. Perfect for the bathroom towel too. I hang the bathroom washbasin towel in the same way, as everyone seems to knock that one to the floor. These stay put hand towels are perfect for the BBQ area also. Knowing where your hanging hand towel is, is perfectly reassuring when cooking in the kitchen.

My Aunt used to gift me those crocheted hanging dishtowels every Christmas for years, so they have a particular place in my heart. Hanging dishtowels at craft fairs tend to be of the “country kitchen” variety, so when my mother mentioned that she had seen some fabric ones and thought they would make a lovely Christmas gift, it seemed like a good chance to make something more modern.

    Thank you, thank you. I have been looking for a pattern to crochet these and this would be so much easier. I don’t know why I didn’t think of sewing tops on them. These are so cute.

    I prefer the non crocheted ones since I do not crochet 😉 Just like the look much better, too. TY

      I totally agree… I do crochet but really don’t like the crochet tops. These are SO much nicer. ?
