I have finished four of my potholders. I wasn't sure if
this was the pattern I wanted to use. It seemed sort of plain to me. After looking at the pictures though I really like them. They are Southwestern Duo potholders. I only used the full circle pattern and not the crescent. I wanted to do a SW theme in honor of my very recent move to SW Texas. I used
Sugar 'n Cream for the primary colors and
I Love This Cotton in
Taupe Ombre for the variegated colorway. I like the thicknesses of these yarns for potholders. They are crocheted in two seperate peices then crocheted together. Not including the loop they measure 9" in diameter. So, what do you think, should I try something a bit more difficult? Btw, I really loooove everyones prototypes so far they are all extremely beautiful! Than you so much for this swap...I very much enjoy making potholders. They are super fast to whip up...talk about instant gratification! :))

These look great! Definitely not plain at all.
ReplyDeleteUm, I think these are perfect and wonderful! No need to redo!!
ReplyDeleteI love there!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping "more difficult" patterns are not expected by everyone, mine are not going to be especially difficult ...
Very pretty! I want to learn to crochet so much. I've been trying to make a Granny Square for the past week! The potholder swap has inspired me to learn!
ReplyDeleteThese look great. Definitely do not need to do "harder". Love these!
ReplyDeleteWow! Thanks for all the great feedback. You are all so kind. I didn't mean to imply the patterns should be harder. Since I have been crocheting for awhile I wanted to try something a bit different..that's all.
ReplyDeleteThese are great; the red ones stand out to me, but all are lovely. : )
ReplyDeleteThey look great. I especially love the red one.
ReplyDeletevery beautiful! they remind me a bit of a cooktop grate - how they radiate, you know?
