Overshot Towel

I bought the kit for this project and loved them so much I wanted to make them again. I decided I wanted a larger towel so I added additional repeats to both length and width. I also selected another color way using Brick and Clay Mallow and Marble duet. They wear really well and just keep getting softer with use.
