These 4 potholders are made in interlocking crochet, which basically is two different colour filet crochet meshes interlocked, made one row of each colour at a time. It is perfect for a double-thick potholder which protects your hands from heat. The pattern comes with instructions on the technique, as well as a photo guide on how to get started. Also info on how to get in touch with me if you were to need any assistance. A perfect stash-buster, which make great gifts!
