I love using cooking pans and pots. But when the pot comes off the stove, the hot knob on the lid is an invitation to disaster. You’re so used to picking up a lid by the knob that you do it reflexively and get a nasty burn. If you’ve ever done this, you know the pain is intense and lasts longer than the most annoying dinner guest.

My crochet animal pot protectors are functional pieces of your kitchen safety gear!

Each crochet pattern set includes

• Handle holders for larger pots
• Long protector for pans
• Lid Knob Cover

As cute as they are practical, these protectors are now available in three cute designs:

• A clowder of gray cats
• A sleuth of brown bears
• An army of green frogs
