Notes

December 28, 2010 My brother’s colors are red and black, so this one wasn’t that difficult to figure out.

♥

May 25, 2021 Apparently, my brother has been getting some good use out of these because he let me know a while ago that they were starting to wear out. I had wanted to make him a replacement set for Christmas 2020, but ended up making a ton of ornaments instead (including about 5 for him), so I made the replacement set for his birthday, the Red and Black Vintage Star Potholder II.

He sent me a picture of one of this set in it’s old location (last picture). Not sure what happened to the second one, but you can see the wear on it after 10+ years.
