This set of eight reversible napkins is made from prewashed 100% cotton material. You can choose which side you want depending on your mood; in effect, it is like getting two sets of napkins in one. Every napkin is finished with an invisible stitch so there aren't any stitches showing on any of the napkins' edges. The dinner plate the napkins are photographed on has a 10½-inch diameter, and the napkins measure 7¼ inches by 7¼ inches (a bit larger than the size of disposable napkins). I was raised using cloth napkins this size and find it is a good size for everyday meals and special occasions. My kids love to pick out their own material for their own special sets, and this size is perfect for them. We even send a cloth napkin to school in their lunch bags! Care instructions: Machine wash and dry on any cycle (I literally have napkins in every load of laundry I do). *Note: Not every napkin is exactly the same due to variations in the fabric.
