This is a fun and very quick project to make.

Finished Potholder’s Measurements:

Approximately: 20 cm square /7.87” square.

Hanging Loop: 6 cm height /2.36” heigh

Your final measurements may vary slightly depending on your yarn and individual stitch techniques.

If you use a chunkier yarn or work with two strands of yarn together you make a thicker fabric and your potholder will turn out larger. Increase or decrease the size of your potholder by by making a longer or shorter foundation chain. 

Gauge

7 sts and 7 rows = 5 cm/1.96 inches square.

Gauge is not important for this project unless you want a specific size.
