Circle in the Corner Potholder
Design by Marie Segares/Underground Crafter.
This is one of 3 potholders featuring circle motifs. This one starts with a motif in the corner and then continues into a mitered square. Instructions are also included for granny square versions without the hanging loop.
Finished Size: Potholder: 7.5” (19 cm) square.
Skills Used
- Basic crochet stitches: chain, double crochet, half double crochet, single crochet, slip stitch
- Crocheting in the round, crocheting flat in rows
- Changing colors, crocheting in the back loop only
Gauge: Finished Potholder = 7.5” (19 cm) square in pattern. Exact gauge is not critical for this project, but stitches should be tight so potholders can protect hands and surfaces from heat.
