Cotton Kitchen Towels

Cotton kitchen towels are cloth towels made for everyday use in the kitchen. They are commonly used to dry dishes, glasses and cutlery, wipe hands and counters, cover bread or dough while it rests, and hold warm pots and pans. Because they can be washed and used again, many households keep a few on hand in place of disposable paper towels. At Dekenet Al Nes they are sold by the piece. Dekenet Al Nes is a package-free grocery store in Baaqline, in the Chouf, Lebanon, started by a group of young Lebanese people as a solidarity initiative after the economic crisis that began in 2019. The shop aims to offer basic necessities at affordable prices while reducing waste, and customers are encouraged to bring their own bags and containers when they visit.
