Cross Stitch Deck the Halls Tea Towel

The Cross Stitch Deck the Halls Tea Towel brings a quieter, more intricate pattern to the kitchen than the collection's bolder plaids, with a cross-stitch design in whitecap gray and red dahlia finished along a scalloped edge. At 30 by 20 inches, it's sized for real use — drying dishes, covering a rising batch of dough, or wiping down the counter mid-recipe — not just hanging decoratively untouched.

We like the scalloped detail along the border, a small extra step that most tea towels skip in favor of a plain hemmed edge. The cross-stitch pattern gives it a handmade look that holds up fine to the machine wash a kitchen towel actually needs to survive. Loop it over the oven handle for easy reach during a baking day, or keep a stack of them folded in a drawer for whenever company's coming and the everyday towels aren't quite festive enough.

It pairs naturally with the other tea towels and aprons in this collection for a coordinated kitchen, or stands on its own as a single, considered detail in a kitchen that's otherwise kept simple through the season.
