This cotton crochet potholder easy pattern takes just one skein of cotton yarn. You can make a set of these potholders in no time at all.
These crocheted potholders make great practical gifts. They work great and they are inexpensive to make. They take less than 1 skein of yarn per double thick potholder.
I choose Lily Sugar N’ Cream Cotton Yarn in Coral Ombre Seas and Teal for this double thick hot pad set. The yarn is easy to work with and comes in lots of colors. It is also easy to find.
