I always say it curls up on the ends like a canoe....love this hot pad/pot holder. They wash up.nicely and last forever. I mix my colors too! 🪡🧶
That’s a fantastic idea! Thanks for sharing.
They don’t shrink?
Love how you show every step and slow where people can follow you and thank you for you sweet direction. Beautiful done.
I just made one with Christmas colours…. It turned out lovely but smaller than I thought…. About 6” across…. Is that what yours measures?? Getting ready for the season…. Thank you for this pattern….
Mine are larger than that. You can simply chain more to increase the size. I didn’t measure it but I’d say they’re at least 9 inches.
Just beautiful. I love the way you teach so easy going, makes me think I can do it. Thank you very much
You can do it!
Thank you for the video, nicely done. Tip to thread yarn, pinch the end into a loop and push through needle eye.
Thank you for this!
Thanks for watching!
thank you for this wonderful tutorial! your instructions are super clear and i can’t wait to make one.
Easy to crochet and potholders look beautiful no matter what combination of yarn I use. mab
My family has used acrylic yarn with this same pattern for more than 20 years. No issues.
Me too
I’d rather be safe than sorry. We use cast iron pans to cook. They get extremely hot. I can take one out of the oven and place it right on my cotton potholder. If I was just putting a serving bowl on the table without it being hot, then acrylic would be fine. I just don’t chance it with cast iron.
This is good to know , I think just lifting a pan it’d be fine
I have also used acrylic yarn. If something is super hot, it may look a little melted, but never has it caught on fire. This is my favorite pattern that I have used. I am called the potholder lady as I give away potholders to people I meet on my travels around the US. At this time, after over 10 years, I have probably made over a thousand. Thanks for your video.
Mine has never caught fire. If the pan is so very hot, it may look melted, but the counter isn't burned. I use Red Heart yarn@pem585
Very good tutorial. I love the way you zoom in so we can see the stitches! Thank you!!
You are so welcome!
Such a great pattern, because it looks beautiful and the potholder becomes thick enough! Saved your video in my collection. Thank you 😊
Awww. Thank you. I love this pattern.
Thank you for sharing! I love the the way the variegated colors turned out! Just beautiful!!
Love this, made one n going to make many more awesome tutorial ty !!!❤
Thank you very simple and beautiful.
I have never seen anyone crochet the way you do it. very different
I was taught 50 years ago by my mom. Then I was taught in 4-H when I was 8 years old. I proceeded to teach it in 4-H another 20 years. I taught it exactly as the 4-H books showed. But I know there are endless ways to crochet. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like she doesn’t yarn over, she yarns under. Her stitches are tight and pretty
Everyone back in the day crocheted under. It’s easier for me. Still get the same look. Different generation. 😊
@@sundancegurltighter stitch, actually
I learned in mid 70's with yarn over
Just love this ..the colors..how you taught it😊
Awww. Thank you so much!!!
I’m recovering from hip replacement surgery and needed a small project to keep me occupied. Yours was perfect! Many thanks🙋🏽♀️☮️
I’m so glad to hear that! They make nice gifts too. I hope your recovery is quick and immensely successful. Have a blessed day!
@@JustDoSomethingHomestead Awe, thanks so much❣️
Lovely! Thank you for sharing….❤
Awww. You’re so welcome! Thanks for watching!
How many rows do you crochet doing the 3 sc in the corners 3:20 pm
I’m not sure what you’re asking. You had a chain of 33. Then you put in 3 single crochet in that 2nd from the end loop. After that it’s one per stitch until the end. Then 3 single crochet in the last stitch. From that point on it’s just one single crochet in each stitch until the rows meet and make a square. You only do the 3 stitches in the first and last stitch one time.
@@JustDoSomethingHomestead yes I watched your tutorial again and seen how you did it. Thank you so much for answering. I’ve made a couple already and love them. Thank you for sharing your pattern also.
@@TerriC-qo7nd Awwww. That’s wonderful! Thanks for letting me know.
@@JustDoSomethingHomestead so at the end of every corner you chain three ? I am only using one color . Mine is not curving I’m doing something wrong
I want this pattern in different stitches, does anyone know if there is anything out there already
Great idea. I’ll see what I can come up with. It needs to be a tight stitch.
Does it matter that you're doing yarn under instead of yarn over?
Nope. That’s how it was taught in the past. You just need to keep it the same.
How can you make this a bigger pot holder?
Absolutely! Just make more chains at the start.
Are you a crocheting subscription in it entirety ? I want to learn
I make free UA-cam videos on crocheting. Just go to my playlist for lots of projects and tutorials.
Hello.thanks for sharing this with us.i love it
You’re welcome! I love this pattern.
I have no idea what I am doing wrong. Trying to do the EASY
potholder..lol 13:07
Tried to send you a pic but didn't workOC
How far are you on it?
How much cotton to make one?
@@janetmenchyk9778 Great question. But I don’t have an answer. I buy the big spools and they make several of them. Plus I change colors. I do know those little skeins are not enough to make one.
Thank you for Sharing I love this pattern
Is there printable directions somewhere
I can't even get the beginner knot
Oh no! Keep practicing. Once you get it move onto the first stitch.
Brilliant thanks so much ❤
Thank you!
I subscribed because I like the name - Just Do Something! That's great! Thanks for the smile😊
Thanks so much!
Very clever! Thank you!
You are very welcome.
How many rows in total do you do?
Until the ends match up. You can choose to make a square one or do less rows for more of a rectangle.
So how many rows in total did you do in the your tutorial?
What is the size of a potholder when finished?
I believe it’s around 7 or 8 inches. It’s very easy to make larger.
HOw do you enlarge that to make a rectangle for a cassorole dish?
I’m never seen one as a casserole dish but it seems like you’d simply chain more. That’s what determines the size.
Thank you for answering my question. I will try that.
What is the finished size of this potholder please?
They are about 8 or 9 inches but you can make them as big as you want. Just chain more.
@@JustDoSomethingHomestead thank you. 😊
Do we chain three at the end of every row ? I’m so confused ? I’m brand new
Other than that very first chain to get the size, you don’t chain any more. You just keep going in a circle. Don’t turn.
I need some of my crochet friends to Show me what I’m doing wrong mine is not curving . I have to keep practicing.
@@Bunwoofie you just keep crocheting in a circle. Like a sock. Both sides will start to curve up.
What size hook do you say you’re using ? My tension seems to be getting tight I am Still practicing I don’t have the hang of this yet ugh
@@Bunwoofie I use a J hook. It’s also called a 6 mm. Keep trucking along. To control the tension, loosen your grip slightly. You’ll get it in no time!
Best tutorial I've watched. I've watched approximately 1o-12 tutorials which weren't as clear and helpful as this was😊😊😊
Awwww. Thank you so much!
Thank you for how to measure…. I’ve been doing the “ trial and error” method !!❤️❤️
Awww. You’re so welcome. I love making these. And counting can be really difficult at first.
