A crochet towel holder (sometimes called towel toppers) are such a cute new way to hold your towel in place in your kitchen! Just put them over the bar on your oven, dishwasher or refrigerator and feed your towel through.

These crochet towel holders are also a great handmade gift! Simply pair them with a kitchen towel, and maybe a couple other kitchen items, and you’ve got yourself a beautiful and meaningful gift!

This free crochet pattern is a quick, easy make and also useful item in the kitchen to keep your towels from falling onto the floor.
