When I asked my daughter to brainstorm with me about what animals I should include in my Winter Potholder Series, she excitedly said, “Mom! You HAVE to include an Arctic Fox! They’re so adorable!”
And I agree! As I was doing research on how I should design this one, the cuteness was almost more than I could stand. All those fluffy white balls of fur and the sweetest little eyes. Sigh! Plus, the Fox has always intrigued me because it looks so much like a cross between a small dog and a cat. Hmmm. Body and snout like a dog; ears and eyes like a cat! Super cool!

Now you can bring the delightful little Arctic Fox and its charming beauty into your home by making this double knit potholder featuring a sleepy, fluffy fox all curled up in a neat little snowball of a circle! If you’re unfamiliar with double knitting, this small potholder is a great way to learn this knitting technique. Both sides are the same, except with reversed colors. You’ll get the accomplishment of finishing a beautiful project and the confidence of adding a new skill to your knitting basket.

With this instantly downloadable PDF pattern, you’ll have all the help you need to get started!
This pattern includes written instructions, a chart, and links to video tutorials for the invisible cast on, invisible bind off, slip stitch edging, and I-cord loop. You’ll end up with a professional looking finished project that you’ll be proud to give as a gift or keep and put on display.
