Mix + Measure Basket Set
Immeasurably Good Stuff! We’ve combined three great towels with these really cool and colorful measuring spoons in a handmade basket for a very clever set with extra good gifting potential.
The measuring spoons are 9 inches long for reaching the bottom of the jar. Made from a renewable and biodegradable bamboo fiber, they have US and metric units. Dishwasher safe.
The basket from Mifuko is handmade of recycled polyester and jute. These baskets are Fair Trade, providing work for women in rural villages of Kenya and Tanzania helping to support their families and communities while preserving traditional handicraft techniques.
And of course, the three towels represent our finest combination of linen and cotton kitchen essentials.
The set contains:
GOOD MEASURE Tea Towel
Linen bistro towel in yellow
Flour sack towel
Set of measuring spoons
Handmade basket
- Linen is wonderful and luxurious. It’s one of the easiest fabrics to care for.
- The smooth and long fibers of linen help resist dirt and stains.
- It gets better with age and softens the more it is washed.
- Linen absorbs water quickly and dries quickly.
- It is durable and strong, lint-free and resistant to pilling.
- Linen can withstand high temperatures.
- It is inherently eco-friendly. Flax has a short growing cycle, is quickly renewable, and every part of the plant is used.
Tea Towels
- Machine wash in cool to warm water.
- Use a mild detergent, no bleach.
- Line dry or tumble dry on low heat; remove while still damp.
- Ironing is optional. Some people prefer linen crisp and flat, others like it soft and natural.
- Dry thoroughly before storing.
- We encourage you to use your tea towels daily and enjoy the patina that comes with age!
- Machine wash in cool to warm water.
- Use a mild detergent, no bleach.
- Hang to dry, or tumble dry on low heat and remove while slightly damp. There is very little to no shrinkage when washed this way.
- For natural or colored linen, it’s best not to hang in bright sunlight to avoid fading.
- Ironing is optional, and much easier to do while your apron is still damp. Use a hot iron with plenty of steam or a spray of water.
- Store in a dry, well-ventilated area. Well-cared for linen aprons will last for generations.
Stains
- Remove stains with soap and water while still fresh, before they dry.
- Pre-soaking in mild detergent is very effective in lifting stains.
- Never use chlorine bleach which may damage the fibers.
