Who’s Scarlet?
Without meaning to state the obvious, our Scarlet is an all-red handkerchief. Made with red cotton sateen, it’s neatly put together with red topstitching and features our usual TSHU tag. This red hanky measures some 28 x 28 cm approximately – a great size to fold and tuck in your pocket or hanky holder, if you prefer.
Why Scarlet is THE one
She just manages to make you feel like going green isn’t a compromise—it’s a choice. A really good one.
How she feels
SCARLET feels like cool satin sheets, but yet, you know she’s tough and she’ll last a long long time.
How she serves
Soon, you’ll be wondering how you ever left the house without her. Hell, if I leave the house without my hanky, I actually feel naked!
And now, every time something happens, like
- 🤧 Your nose runs
- 😭 You get emotional
- 💦 You spill something
- 🥐 You need to set down your croissant
- 🙊 Your child is leaking
Or anything else life throws at you… You’ll be ready. SO ready.
The nitty-gritty technical stuff
- Fabric: 100% organic cotton sateen
- Plies of fabric: one
- Thickness: thin
- Absorbency: standard
- Dimensions :4 sizes to choose from
You got this… And we got you.
First, congrats on using reusable handkerchiefs. 👏🏻 I know it’s not a big commitment really, because they’re so amazing that they actually make blowing your nose a fun experience—but hey, you are doing a good deed for our planet and that’s something to be proud of. So kudos on making your daily life that much greener. While we’re on the subject of waste reduction, you might enjoy learning that to boost your good deed, we also commit to planting a tree every time you take a hanky home with you. Isn’t that awesome? 😍
Caring for SCARLET
I’ve got a whole article written down for you with detailed instructions on how to care for your handkerchiefs so they’ll last a long time, but in a jiffy:
👉🏻 wash it with cold to lukewarm water (snot melts at approximately 30 degrees, which is the temperature I would recommend
👉🏻 dry in open air (it will last longer that way)
In any case, know that this handkerchief is made to last. I know you’re like me and you hate cheap stuff—so I promise, this one should be around for a while.
