Oven Mitts and Hand Towels

Does one need separate hand towels and oven mitts for Pesach or can one just wash the everyday ones and use them for Pesach?

Hand towels do not have to be replaced, and should just be washed on a hot-cycle in the washing machine before Pesach. Theoretically, the same would be effective for oven mitts, but since (a) pieces of food often adheres to the mitts, and (b) they are used in close proximity to food, the common practice is to have separate oven mitts for Pesach.
