Bath Towels Should Always Have Sewn-In Loops

A few years ago, I got a set of towels from Ikea with loops sewn-in for easy hanging. It blew my mind.
Once in a while, something very simple hits you in the face and reminds you how there's always room to improve just about everything. For years, I would hang my towel on a hook behind my door, without thinking there would was a better way.
I like to use a big towel, so I had to tinker quite a bit to make sure it didn't fall off the hook. Eventually, I started putting the towel on a regular hanger, then put the hanger on the hook.
Then I brought home those Ikea towels with a funny name and wondered how on earth I managed without them. I was able to get rid of the clothing hanger, and simply hang my towel using the sewn-in loop, directly on the hook. Imagine that. Just slip in on the hook and it's perfect, and never falls.
I recently went on a business trip and got out of the shower with the towel, and saw a sign that encouraged people to re-use their towels, and it hit me. They didn't have sewn-in loops on their towels, and they didn't actually have a good place to put the towel. I just tossed it in the tub.
