Question 1

Are these towels see-through?

Accepted Answer

When I compare them to a few other brands of flour sack towels, these are a tad thicker and less see through.  So, you can see through them, but they are not as sheer as a sheer curtain.

Question 2

Being white don't these towels become stained easily?  Can they be bleached?

Accepted Answer

do not use bleach, i use shout stain remover and tide and the towels come out clean & white.  my mother-in law started me out on flour sack dish towels when i first got married, 46 years ago.  they are the best, so i bought 2 sets and will eventually  buy more, in case they stop making them, happy dish washing.   mrs. steinhauer

Question 3

Are these lint free to dry glassware?

Accepted Answer

Have had these for two years. They do dry very well and no lint.

Question 4

What is the thread count?

Accepted Answer

It is very easy to count the threads yourself. Make sure you spread out the cloth on a flat surface. I tape mine down when doing this. Using a ruler, carefully mark off a 2 inch segment, along a single thread of the warp. (Those are the ones that go from selvage to selvage if using yard goods.) Just pick a side if using cut fabric. Stick a pin in the fabric to mark the 0 and 2 inch spots, count the threads and divide by two. This tends to be more accurate than trying to count a single inch of threads. Tightly woven cotton will be about 50 to 85 t.p.i. in my experience. Any higher, and it becomes more sheet-like & shiny, any less, and you can make out gaps between the threads. You might check both directions, as they won't be the same like Aida cloth. That's how I do it; but there are probably more ways out there. If you want tightly woven cotton with a high thread count for a craft, use cotton sheets, or sheeting material at the fabric store. It will NOT be evenweave, though. So keep that in mind. Hope this helps those who are also curious!
