This potholder is inspired by Native American and Southwest themes and will make a colorful addition to your kitchen decor. Great gift idea too! It is included in our booklet, “Native American Potholders.” The double thickness potholder is made using worsted weight yarn, in your choice of cotton or acrylic. The design is formed by cleverly placed dropped dc sts worked in front lp of st 2 rows below, also known as overlay mosaic crochet. All color changes are done at beginning of rows, so you are only working with one color at a time. Potholder is about 7” square.

Materials: Worsted weight yarn--2.5 oz. light blue, 1.5 oz. red, small amount dark blue, size G crochet hook.
