Jeepers the Jack-O-Lantern is warily looking skywards. Part of my Flat as a Potholder series, this cutie is waiting for the monster casserole pan to descend.

Works up quick for a terrific gift or your own spooktacular decor.

Level: Beginner / Intermediate
Yarn needle and minimal sewing required.

Hook G (4.0mm) and DK yarn in cotton, acrylic, or wool make a terrific potholder (aka hot pad).

Hook I (5.5mm) and DK yarn in cotton or cotton blend make cute dishrags with a bit looser weave. (Requires more yarn, plan accordingly).
