Sometimes simple is best . . .


. . .like this potholder I crocheted in rows of hdc (half double crochet) and sc (single crochet) stitches.

I actually prefer this shape to the traditional square potholders. This gives me just enough coverage so my hand won't get burned but not so much coverage that I can't find the pot!

Measuring 8.25" x 5.50" in a heavy weight variegated 100% cotton yarn, it's a totally mindless piece but great to do while watching the telly or sitting in a waiting room. Plus, it's easily cleaned in the washer & dryer! A win-win situation all around!
