towel
Post-shower wrap
A towel is an absorbent cloth or paper used for drying wet surfaces—hands, body, dishes, spills.
Bath towels are large; hand towels smaller.
To throw in the towel is to admit defeat, from boxing corners signaling surrender.
As a verb, to towel is to dry with one: He toweled off after the shower.
