Sweetpea Tea Towel
Made for people who love the environment but don’t want to compromise on style. This dishcloth is both practical and luxurious and just in case you can’t bear to use it as intended I’ve included double corner tabs so you can hang it on the wall instead. Instant art cred!
This is not a cheap and nasty dishrag, here are all the details:
Digitally printed in Germany by a U.S company using biodegradable inks.
Sewn-in New Zealand: No child labour insight.
Made from a blend of 55% linen and 45% cotton so it gets softer with use and washing.
When its natural life is over you can rip it up and put it in your compost. Even the tag is 100% cotton and biodegradable!
This kitchen towel is a generous 39 x 63 cm (15.4 x 25 Inches) perfect for flicking over your shoulder and channelling your inner Nadia.
Hand drawn then digitally coloured in Napier by New Zealand Artist, Ngaio Blackwood (me).

I remember dreaming of starting a T-Shirt design company full of witty slogans but now that I’m a little older and let’s pretend, wiser I‘ve moved to design tea towels. My lightbulb moment was being given two of my grandmother’s tea towels that she brought back from a trip to the UK and never used. My Mum passed them onto me when I was setting up my home (she didn’t use them either). I believe in practical and beautiful items that are cherished and shared. Going back in time I would tell my Grandmother to enjoy them during her lifetime but I am also eternally grateful that I get have them. I still check every op shop for full-colour linen or cotton tea towels in the style she loved and I’ve only been successful once. So I’m remedying the situation so we can all enjoy full-colour quality tea towels.
This Design Is All About Sweet Peas.
What is it about sweet peas that I love so much? The soft colours? The tendrils? The way they climb? I plant them every year without fail. Once I grew them in my kitchen window and put string all over the frame so they could climb and climb. It was the best. I originally drew these sweetpeas as a repeat surface pattern for fabric. I’ve repurposed this design into a burst of sweetness and a tea towel that really pops.
If you like this design you might also like my Uncut Tea Towel.
