The signature squeaky texture when you squeeze Yukine towels comes from their intensive post-bleaching process, which significantly enhances absorbency. A hallmark of Senshu towel-making, this technique involves thoroughly washing away the oils, dirt, and weaving agents left behind on the cotton threads. Yukine takes this a step further by doubling the effort, unlocking the cotton’s full potential and resulting in a uniquely crisp, ultra-absorbent finish. Over time, the towels become softer, fluffier, and more gentle on the skin. Starting from a pure, snowy white base, the design features white warp pile and colorful weft threads, evoking natural elements like earth, water, and foliage peeking through fresh snow.
Even with a carefully managed manufacturing process, some towel materials inevitably go to waste due to fraying, loose threads, or minor tears that make them unsuitable for full-sized products. “YUKINE BITS” upcycles these unused remnants by selecting the best portions and repurposing them into half-sized handkerchiefs. Thanks to YUKINE’s signature high absorbency, these smaller pieces remain highly functional. Compact and convenient, they fit easily in a pocket or small bag and are perfect for wiping hands or small items, an eco-friendly alternative to disposable tissues.Mini Towel Size: 12 x 23 cm - Set of 3

To care for your item, avoid pulling any loose threads—gently trim them with scissors instead. Machine wash with similar colors on a gentle cycle in cold water using a mild detergent. For best results, place in a mesh laundry bag to prevent snags. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners. Hang to dry in a well-ventilated space and avoid stretching while damp.
