About the Pattern

Dance along with this fun skeleton with this spooky scary potholder! It’s the perfect decoration for celebrating the spooky season!

Double knit, the potholder is fully reversible, with opposite colors on the reverse side. Use color changing yarn for interesting color combinations (gradual color changes work best) or solid colored yarn for a more classic look. Try a glow-in-the-dark yarn for an extra spooky effect!

The finished size of the potholder is approximately 7 inches by 7 inches (17.8 cm by 17.8 cm). The color work for the design is chart only, not written instructions.
