Children’s Towel Sizes & Finished Measurements

This comprehensive PDF guide covers 3 versatile children’s sizes based on height (approximate ages 3 to 13 years):

  • Size S / 98–122 cm (approx. 3–7 yrs): Towel 70×100 cm (27.5″x39.5″) | Hood 25×35 cm (10″x13.5″)
  • Size M / 128–140 cm (approx. 8–10 yrs): Towel 80×130 cm (31.5″x51″) | Hood 35×45 cm (13.5″x17.5″)
  • Size L / 146–158 cm (approx. 11–13 yrs): Towel 100×150 cm (39.5″x59″) | Hood 40×50 cm (15.75″x19.5″)

Fabric Requirements & Consumption

For 1-meter / 39.5″ fabric width:

  • Size S: 1.7 meters (approx. 1.9 yards)
  • Size M: 1.9 meters (approx. 2.1 yards)
  • Size L: 2.0 meters (approx. 2.2 yards)

For 1.4-meter / 55″ fabric width:

  • Size S: 1.1 meters (approx. 1.2 yards)
  • Size M: 1.4 meters (approx. 1.55 yards)
  • Size L: 1.6 meters (approx. 1.75 yards)

Important Layout Tip: Standard terry cloth and waffle fabrics are often 1.4–1.5 meters wide. When planning your layout, the width of the towel on your pattern piece actually corresponds to the height/length of the finished garment layout. Buying a wider fabric will significantly reduce the total yardage you need to purchase due to the highly efficient layout! Please note that all calculations already include seam allowances.


Materials & Tools Needed

  • Fabric: I highly recommend using standard cotton terry cloth (toweling fabric) or waffle cotton fabric. (Note: Natural cotton shrinks! Please buy 5-10% extra fabric to allow for pre-washing).
  • Grosgrain Ribbon: For binding the diagonal raw edges of the corner pockets (Size S: ~40 cm / 0.45 yd; Size M: ~50 cm / 0.55 yd; Size L: ~55 cm / 0.6 yd).
  • Decorative Ribbons or Cords (Optional): For custom embellishments, length required FOR EACH individual type of ribbon/cord (Size S: ~200 cm / 2.2 yds; Size M: ~240 cm / 2.6 yds; Size L: ~290 cm / 3.2 yds).
  • Thread: Matching sewing thread (size 40/2).
  • Tools: Standard straight-stitch sewing machine, iron/steam generator, fabric shears, tailor’s chalk, ruler, measuring tape, and pins.
