This crochet circle hot pad is double layered for extra protection from hot dishes! It is constructed by making two large circles and then slip stitching them together.

You will feel comfortably safe when using this large and thick hot pad; it is plenty wide and extra thick. But it’s also cute too! Quick projects like this are also fun for making multiples and picking out all kinds of color combinations.
