Add some colour to your kitchen with the Colorama Pot Holder! It’s beautiful, useful, and makes a great stash buster project. This pot holder is made using the moss stitch (a.k.a the linen, granite, and woven stitch) which is a combination of single crochets and chain-1 spaces. This simple stitch allows the beauty of the yarn to shine through, so it’s perfect for variegated or bold coloured yarn.

It is constructed using the magic pot holder technique to create a double thick pot holder that protects your hands, counters, and furniture.

This pot holder pattern is Week 4 of the Pot Holders Galore Crochet-along.

What Can I Use a Pot Holder For?
Pot holders are practical items that you can use in the kitchen:
* Set a scolding pot/pan/baking sheet/casserole dish on a pot holder to protect your counters and furniture.

  • Use them like oven mitts when taking something out of the oven or microwave.

  • Use them as a portable placemat. Place a pot holder underneath a hot bowl or plate, so you can carry your food to the table or the couch.

  • Use them as a coaster for hot drinks!
