One dish towel will make two hanging towels.

R1: Cut the dish towel in half and fold the cut edge over twice to hide the rough edge.
You can stitch this hem on a sewing machine if you don't want to bother with it throughout this row
or you can simply hold it in place as you work your foundation row. Using the #7 Steel Hook,
push the hook through the towel just below the fold and work a sc near the edge.
Keep the edge folded as you work evenly spacing a total of 57 sc across the towel edge.
Using the G Hook, ch 1, turn.
