Single Crochet Cross Stitch Hot Pad

By CrochetNCrafts.

This crochet hot pad pattern is worked up in the single crochet cross stitch, which gives you a nice thick fabric to protect your tabletops against hot plates and pots.

It crochets easily and can be made with all sorts of cotton leftovers! I only added a few stripes to use up a small ball, but you can add as many stripes as you like.
