Potholder fun!

The beginning of the year seems to be a time when people like to clean out closets and drawers and get organized! I decided to clean out and organize out my kitchen drawers and noticed that my potholders were stained and even had a burn mark or two on them. Since potholders are a useful kitchen item that can protect your hands from hot surfaces and can be used to protect countertops and tables from hot pots, pans, or baking dishes, they are something I needed to replace. So instead of buying some new ones I decided to start my 2025 crochet journey by making new potholders. 

Here we go a skein, fresh off the hook:

                                                 Wattle Stitch Pot Holders

These potholders are a quick to make since they have a repeating pattern done with basic crochet stitches. In fact you could probably crochet one up in an hour or two! It is best to make potholders with cotton yarn since it can be heat resistant, can absorbed water, and can stand up to repeated washings.

Not only are potholders a handy item to have around, they are also considered decorative, since they can add color to your kitchen and can be incorporated into any decor. Crochet potholders make great gifts and there are no limits to what colors can be used.

Grab your hook and lets start our 2025 creative crochet journey together!

Have a hooky day! Lynne
