Hooded Towel

It has come to the point where L is too big to use his baby hooded towels, but he is still cold when he gets out of the tub.  I came across this hooded towel tutorial that was super easy to follow!!  It took me about 30 minutes to finish it.  

My only thing that I would do differently next time, is buying a thinner towel.  I use towels that we already had and they were so thick that it #1 hard to sew through and #2 it broke my needle.  So I think a thinner hand towel and towel would work out better.

  1. Love hooded towels. My big kids still like them. I like the shape of yours better than the ones that I've done.

    The other thing you can do if your towel is thick is to try using either a denim needle or an upholstery needle. They are intended for thicking fabrics and won't break as easily.
