Colourful home textiles made from industry leftovers!

When factories dye yarns to weave textiles, they make some extra, just in case. But often, those leftovers go unused. Odds & Ends is designed to make the most of these colourful remainders, turning them into endless unexpected colour combinations.

Haberdasher
Haberdasher is another design inspired by the haberdashery, with loads of diffe- rent ribbons, bands and ricracs for the kitchen. The intention is to produce this set twice a year just like the Other Half set and wrap it in a custom way, with more ric rac

Tea Towel
Our tea towels measure 70 x 50 cm, weigh 250 gms, and come with a hanging loop. Originating in Northern Europe, tea towels are used to dry dishes so they can be put away immediately without a drying rack. Our version is flat-woven on a jacquard loom.

Kitchen Towel
Measuring 50 x 50 cm and weighing 350 gms, our kitchen towels also come with a hanger. Primarily used to dry hands in the kitchen, they are equally useful in the bathroom or toilet.

Care Instructions
All Odds & Ends textiles can be washed at 60°C on a cotton programme with similar colours. For a longer life, we recommend washing at 30°C. An organic, colour-safe detergent can help keep the colours looking bright, while line drying can help your textiles last even longer.

For terry products, especially those with a velour finish, occasional tumble drying at medium heat can help keep them soft without the need for fabric softener. If you live in an area with hard water, a little citric acid or vinegar in the rinse can help soften both the water and your towels.

Snags
Some Odds & Ends products are woven with terry loops to give them that soft, absorbent texture. When new, these loops can be a little more prone to snagging, so watch out for jewellery during the first few uses.

If a snag happens, don’t worry. Simply cut it off with a pair of sharp scissors. Whatever you do, don’t pull it! Cutting the snag prevents it from running further and won’t damage the woven structure. With time and use, the fibres become less prone to snagging.

Production
Odds & Ends textiles are made in Portugal using 100% cotton industry remainders. These are small quantities of yarn left over from other textile productions. Instead of going to waste, they get a second life as something useful and beautiful.

Colours
Odds & Ends towels are made in small batches using surplus industry yarns, so colours can vary from one batch to another. We keep the overall palette consistent, so pieces within the same colour family still work well together. Your towel may look slightly different from the one in the photos, but the overall colour and feel will remain the same.
