Elegant Star Stitch Potholder
This pattern uses a combination of the star stitch and half double crochet worked into the back loop only to create a really elegant pattern that is sure to be a beautiful addition to any kitchen.
If you are not familiar with the star stitch, it’s relatively easy to learn. This special stitch forms rows of starburst-like stitches, each worked with multiple loops. This stitch is also sometimes called the “Marguerite stitch” or the “daisy stitch,” or even a “spiked cluster.”
My favorite feature of these potholders is the double layer of thickness that comes from working them in the round. While they aren’t technically seamless - we join our rounds and chain up - the seam is hidden on the edge of the potholder where it easily blends in.
