This easy crochet potholder pattern makes a thick, thermal potholder that’s genuinely useful in the kitchen. Lucia’s Textured Potholder is worked in one piece using puff stitches and worsted-weight cotton, creating a dense, double-thick fabric—with no doubling or sewing required.

It’s beginner-friendly, works up quickly, and looks just as good as it works. Leave it hanging by the stove, or make a few in different colors as a set.
