Happy Pumpkin Pie Pot Holder | Posh Pooch Designs

Happy Pumpkin Pie Pot Holder Crochet Pattern 
by Sara Sach of

When I think of Fall, I think of all the Autumn smells.
Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Cocoa and of Course,
 The Smell of Pumpkin Pie Baking in the Oven.
Although, I do not care for Pumpkin pie,
 unless there is whipped topping to put on top.
And  lot of it!

Remember, If you are going to get this Pot holder near 
anything hot out of the oven, I suggest you use cotton yarn.
 If it's a decoration, you can use acrylic yarn.
