Towels with loop

11 replies

I want to buy some new hand towels as I’m fed up with my old Ikea ones. However, the hanging loop on their towels is so useful but I can’t find others that have it or separate hooks/loops that can be attached. The Ikea ones are so dull, I want something brighter. Does anyone know where else I can get towels with loops OR good attachable ones. Most seem to be for tea towels, I’ve got some if those and they’re not strong enough. Thanks

Just sew on some ribbon 🤷🏻‍♀️

Can you make your own loops and attach them? It’s a fairly simple process, you’d just need some cotton tape, a needle and thread. It’s just a few stitches for each. Then you could use any bright towel you wanted.

I bought hand towels in Morrisons with loops, they're pretty boring though but they're just for the cloakroom.

I wish all towels had loops. I have these clip on ones for my bath sheets. Lots of different colours on eBay.

Thanks for the replies. I’m 66 and I’ve never sewn anything in my life and won’t be starting now! I saw those Amazon loops but I wasn’t sure they are strong enough for towels but it looks like they are. I’ll get some of those. I’ve got my eye on some specific towels which I love and are only £7 each!

I have those clip on loops for hand towels, tea towels and rubber gloves, but they could be used with large towels unless maybe they are really thick and heavy bath sheets.

The Amazon loops have worked brilliantly and I now have cheap (and beautiful) William Morris hand towels from Habitat

I use the clip on loops on bath sheets no problem.

Interesting. I thought they wouldn’t be strong enough for hand towels but they are. It seems I can attach them to all sorts. Watch out cats!
