A tea towel holder crocheted around an elastic hair tie to hold any size towel. This could be used instead of crochet towel toppers for holding kitchen towels.

The pattern calls for multiple strands of crochet thread but this could be worked with cotton yarn as well.

The pattern calls for a border of single crochet. Pictures of that can be found here: http://simply-crochet.blogspot.com/2012/03/towel-holder.html
