9 Favorites from Fog Linen Work
October 4, 2013
We first discovered Fog Linen while covering two online shops we love, Brook Farm General Store and Horne, that carry their napkins. Upon a visit to the Fog Linen Work site itself, we realized just how great their stuff really is and discovered a bevy of non-linen offerings we loved too! Clean, natural, and beautiful. What more could you want? Here, we've chosen just nine of of our favorites from the shop and trust us, it wasn't easy to choose.
Based on traditional European towels, Fog uses raw linen to create a textile that is long-lasting and gets softer & more absorbent with each wash. Plus, the waffle texture gently exfoliates as you dry.

Hint: Wash these once before using. They'll be so soft and pleasing you won't want to use anything else again. Iron only if you feel compelled to iron.
