About the project
Karin’s 2 blue Pot Holders includes 2 lovely designs. One with swallows, and one with a flower. The one with the flower can be made with open or closed windows (see the pictures).

The pot holders are made in interlocking crochet, a technique that consists of two crochet parts in different colors which are interlinked and thereby they form a relief picture.

The patterns are for right handed crochet.

Dimensions
The pot holders measures approx 20,5 x 21,5 cm (23 x 23 windows), depending on the yarn (see below) and hook size.

Yarn

Recommended yarn is cotton 8/4.
You need two colors. The best result is with contrasting colors.

The pot holders are shown in blue and white.
50 g / 170 m (total 215 m)
