This collection of six potholders include two Bluebirds, Pineapple Flower, Nine-Circle Design, Folded Flower and Lacy Folded Flower. Bluebirds are a symbol of happiness, prosperity, and good health. Every home needs a Bluebird to remind them of these positive aspects. The pretty pineapple potholder is a classic design that is perfect for putting pans in place. Nine-Circle Potholder complements the vintage collection with a size that is handy to use. The Folded Flower design in this collection uses double crochet stitches to create a piece that folds to look like a windmill’s blades. The Lacy Folded Flower version of this classic design is a variation that adds charm and daintiness to your collection. These fun potholders range in size from 5 inches to 7 inches, making them an excellent travel project that you can pack up and take along where ever you go.
