This Hello Kitty dots towel is perfect for the beach or pool. When you're done using it, just shake it off to get rid of most of the sand. Then, you can follow the care instructions. Machine wash it in cold water on a delicate cycle. Don't use bleach as it can damage the organic cotton. Hang it up to dry, and don't use an iron or put it in the dryer. Also, avoid using fabric softeners or dryer sheets, as they can reduce the towel's sand - repelling ability. And make sure not to wash it with denim or heavy clothes, as they might scratch or damage the towel.
