Chra’s Potholder Pattern: {Knitting}

Free Potholder Knitting Pattern By chrachen.blogspot.com

Today’s feature is from Chra with this knit pattern for a lovely Potholder:

These take only one afternoon to make and are lovely all year gifts but especially for people who just moved into a new home. They are also cheap and useful.

The pattern is worked in double strands of cotton yarn using the seed stitch and knit and purl (resources provided for the seed stitch if you’re not sure how to do it). These are lovely for your own kitchen but I also like to whip up a bunch of potholders to keep on hand for last-minute gifts, everyone appreciates them!

Please visit the site above for the pattern details, nice job! If you don’t know how to knit and would love to learn (or even just brush up on skills), here’s a handy resource guide for you: Learn How To Knit – Free Resource Guide.

    Fabulous! Nice picture. Somebody’s an excellent knitter! Can’t wait to try this pattern. Will be nice to go along with my homemade utensils.

    Beautiful! I’m definitely going to try this out.
    Has anyone who tried this found that the double-strand knitting was enough to take hot things out of the oven / handle hot pots?

    • TipNut says:

      I find it is but the design has to be nice and tight (like this one) and no open loops or gaps. Also the work shrinks a bit when washed so that helps too.
