Potholders

Another little project I have been working on is these potholders.  I’m using the Wool Eater pattern from Sarah London. I made an afghan for my granddaughter, using this pattern, and I just love the results this pattern gives.  :)  Saw this post on Ravelry, which is where I got the idea to make the potholders. I am using cotton ww yarn since I am making them to actually sit under hot dishes and pans. If they’re being made solely for decorative purposes, I’m sure you could use whatever yarn you like. :)

Here is a picture of Adelyn with the afghan I made for her.  This picture was taken in May 2010.IMG_5646

  2. Love the very pretty potholder! I've never tried this pattern yet, but it's certainly inspiring seeing both projects you've made! A very Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! ~tina

  3. My goodness girl, you have been busy. Been a while since I've been on here and look at all the beauties ... the ripple, orange and pinks (all from previous posts) and here the potholders. What a wonderful idea! My crochet, believe it or not, has slowed down but seeing these gorgeous items is making me want to stop everything and pick up the hook! Hopefully tonight! Have a wonderful day.
