I am making these and donating them for our annual Christmas Fair at my church. The yarn that I used is Bernat, Handicrafter Cotton, Harvest Home Collection in the color Landscape. This yarn was provided for me to use by my crochet group. The crochet hook I used is US size H.
To see the pattern that I used to make these potholders please visit HERE and to visit my past blog post of the dishcloths I made click HERE.
I hope I've inspired you to make these fun and easy potholders. These make great gifts for any occasion.

The pot holders look amazing. I love the shades in the variegated yarn you're using. :-)

Lovely colours, you can never have too many potholders :)
ReplyDeleteThose are great, and you're right, they are Fall colors. :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful colours, perfect for the rapidly approaching fall.

It's nice to have new ones for the upcoming seasons. And how sweet that you donate these! Enjoy your weekend! Sweet hugs!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful little potholders. I love those colors. I am looking forward to the fall this year. =) Blessings, Valerie
ReplyDeleteThe color landscape is the perfect name for that yarn....irt also reminds me of camouflage. You are such a gem crocheting things to help your church. I would not like working on blankets in the summer either...too hot! Have a blessed weekend.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Vicky
Very handy potholders. Definitely fall colours, but can we pause summer for a little longer? Not ready for the cold blast of winter just yet! Wendy x
ReplyDeleteHi Julie, lovely coasters and how I love those colors...calling the fall! Crocheting is perfect for summer also to me :)
ReplyDeleteHope you have a wonderful weekend!

Julie - these look great! They sure do remind me of fall. I am not ready for it yet here though it is still very hot. I agree - I like to work on things indoors these days because of the heat and also smaller or lightweight projects are nice. I am currently knitting a short sleeve lace sweater in a light silk yarn and it is turning out nicely so far - kind of complicated though. Have a good evening! Kimberlee
ReplyDeleteHi Julie; I'm new to your blog and just love it; been snooping around; love your creativity. I have never knitted in my life--it looks too complicated but oh so pretty the color combinations you come up with. Have a great weekend. Patty
ReplyDeleteI just love these potholders! & especially the brown & green combo - beautiful!

Hi Julie, I see that you are busy again with your handwork, great colors for fall. Id like to invite you to stop by this weekend and share your link. Hope you can find you way over to Oh My Heartsie Girl this weekend!
ReplyDeleteHave an enjoyable day!
Julie, they are so lovely and make for wonderful donations.
ReplyDeleteI love, love, LOVE these potholders! My mother in law used to make them for me and my grandmother does as well. They are just perfect for cleaning.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure these will sell well at your churches fair.
ReplyDeleteI love the colour combo you chose!
The colours definitely fit the name of the yarn collection well don't they! It is nice to have smaller makes for the summer as you say, as large things can be a bit cumbersome can't they. xx
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful! You are already into full swing creating for the Fair for Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI love the way the pattern (colors) worked out! I need some of that cotton!
ReplyDeleteSo cute! And yes, the colors are very fall-ish. I can't believe it's already August!
ReplyDeleteI'd love if you share this (or any yarn-y) project at the Yarn Fanatic Party! http://philwife.blogspot.com/2014/08/yarn-fanatic-party-2.html
Thank you for sharing today at the Everyday Life Link party. I looked at the pattern for these pot holders. I am new to crocheting, and I think I will try this pattern. I agree with you, I have a baby blanket I started earlier this year, but in the summer months it bothered me to have it on my lap. I never thought about doing a smaller craft such as this to make for stocking stuffers.
ReplyDeleteThank you,
Kathy
Oh how pretty. I could see them in Christmas colors! I hope your sale goes well. My post for today (it's not up yet) is about serving but in a different way.
ReplyDeleteI am hoping to go buy some black yarn today. Call me crazy but I want to make some black dishcloths. I might go blind! Wish me luck!
Have a good day.
