Instructions on this pattern

[deann]

Hello,

I am going to paste a link below of this pattern for lace trimmed towels.

It does not specify, or at least I cannot understand, if I need special yarn for the edging that is different than the rest of the towel??

Please let me know what you think.

Thank you!!

From the sound of it, it just sounds like you need 100% cotton yarn, nothing else, plus with the finishing directions ("Weave in all yarn tails to wrong side of work. Block. Pin edging to 1 end of towel; thread sewing needle with matching thread, and attach edging to towel with overcast stitch. Remove all pins."), you're sewing the newly knitted yarn to the fabric of the towel.

That's my
