 Checked Hot Pad / Pot Holder 

Crochet Pattern 

By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs 

IT IS FRIDAY FUNDAY!

I designed a Checked Washcloth / Dish Cloth about

 four years ago and I was recently asked if I had

 a matching pot holder. I did not, but I do now!

And I really love how they all turned out.

Get In Your yarn stash and make all sorts of colors, 

or make a matching set. You can make them 1 thickness,

 or 2 thicknesses for added safety.

Check Washcloth / Dishcloth

I also have a crochet pattern for a mug rug / coaster

 that is checked that can also be made to match.

Now you can make coordinating sets as

 gifts or for yourself, family and friends.

 Just have so much fun and

 learn how to crochet the checkered pattern. 

It is fun and easier than you think.

And Can make for any season, holiday or occasion.

Get in your yarn stash and stitch a bunch of them up.

 But be careful, once you start making them,

 you will not want to stop!

FRIDAY FUN DAY! Simple Pumpkin Hot Pad / Pot Holder Crochet Pattern By Sara Sach

 FRIDAY FUN DAY! 

Simple Pumpkin Hot Pad / Pot Holder

 Crochet Pattern

 By Sara Sach of Posh Pooch Designs

IT'S FRIDAY FUN DAY!

*********************************

I have had many requests for a simple Crochet 

Pumpkin shaped pot holder / hot pad, so here it is.

 I hope you like it. I had a lot of fun designing it.

It's an easy design of a basic pumpkin with a 

stem, leaf and vine curl. You can make 1 or 2 

thicknesses, depending on what you will use it for.

If using it for an actual hot pad placing hot dishes on

 it or grabbing hot dished from the oven, I suggest

 making it double thick. If it a decoration

 1 thickness if fine.

I designed it using Medium (4) weight orange and

 sage green Red Heart Super saver acrylic yarn, 

as mine for for decorations,

 but again, If using it for an actual hot pad placing 

hot dishes on it or grabbing hot dished from the oven,

I suggest using a cotton or cotton blend yarn.
