Sand doesn't want to stay at the beach. It wants a ride home in your bag, on the car seat and down the hallway. Here's how to get sand off a beach towel before any of that happens: let it dry, shake it the right way, brush off the last of it and pack it sand-side in. It's a short routine, it works on any towel and it's easier on a flat weave.
Pick up almost any Turkish towel and the first thing your hand finds is the fringe: a row of knotted ends hanging off each short side. It looks decorative, and it is. But it started as a practical answer to a weaving problem. So why do Turkish towels have fringe? The short version: it's how the loose threads at the ends of a woven cloth get finished. Here's what's going on, how it shows up on a Salt Rag, and how to live with it.
