About the Pattern
Decorate your kitchen with this cute sheep potholder! Perfect for a knitter who loves wool or anyone who thinks sheep are cute. Double knit, the potholder is reversible, with opposite colors on the reverse side. Use color changing yarn for interesting color combinations or solid yarn for a more classic look.
The finished size is approximately 7 inches by 7 inches (17.8 cm by 17.8 cm). The color work design is chart only, not written instructions.
Disclaimer: This pattern is for creating a decoration only. The knitted item might not protect you from hot items and contact with hot items could melt certain types of yarn. Please use caution.

Double Knitting Tutorial
I have a double knitting tutorial that covers casting on, binding off, edging, and reading basic charts. It’s great for beginners, and experienced double knitters might also pick up something new.
