Tuesday’s Crochet Tip – Quick and Decorative Potholders

Share Button

Tuesday's Crochet Tip - Quick and Decorative PotholdersIt’s National Crochet Month! To celebrate, we have some wonderful crochet tips to share with you. This week’s tip is from Sara, WEBS Marketing Coordinator and crochet designer.

I often find myself making one crochet motif, to try out a pattern or yarn, that never actually becomes anything. This is a great way to use up those lonely motifs. Pair them with a solid back piece in the same shape and join them along the edges. These make great last minute gifts! Edie Eckman’s Beyond the Square is a great resource for different shaped motifs. Note: Potholders should be made with 100% Cotton, 100% Wool or a blend of those 2 fibers only, other fibers may scorch, burn or even melt. The two shown are the same pattern with the top potholder made with Tahki Cotton Classic and the Bottom with a combination of Valley Yarns Northampton and Cascade 220.
