Learn a new stitch and add some function to your kitchen with the Riding the Waves Potholder. This potholder is crocheted in the round in one piece, which means that it is double thick, and there is no sewing involved.

The Riding the Waves Potholder uses the half double crochet granny spike stitch to create a fun chevron pattern that pops with 2 or more colours.

This potholder pattern is part of the 2024 Potholders Galore Crochet-along, and with the purchase of an ebook, you will receive a total of 13 potholder patterns (one pattern every two weeks during the crochet-along).
