Nice and thick potholders are great to protect hands from getting burned and are some really great looking potholders! The Folded Potholder pattern, courtesy of Michelle Gibbs is a fantastic little pattern, pretty much a favorite for everyone spending time in the kitchen. These potholders last such a long time, wash well, and nothing works better when taking something hot out of the oven.
——————————————
I use a G hook and a worsted weight cotton yarn. As long as you like the fabric you produce there is no wrong answer.

if you can do a single crochet, you cn make these. They are the only potholders I’ve used for the past 20 or more years. They last forever and make great gifts and craft show sale items. have fun with them.
This is called a magic potholder.

Jennifer Kitchen think I’m going to try these.
I’ve made a few and now making more. They are so easy to do. Like them better then regular pot holders. Told my daughter I’m getting rid of the traditional ones n make all new ones. We were Leary at first but they really protect from hot pans. No burns
I have made these before and love them. They make a good hostess gift.
Nice
I made them and used them as hot pads. love making them. the only problem is what colors to make (lol).
My grandmother (Nana) used to make these !
Nifty idea
These are unbelievably easy and the only ones we use now.

These are the best pot holders and hot plates!
Make sets…Ch 35, ch 30, ch 25. Nice sets.
My favorite project to make!
I always make these and dishcloths as gifts when we go for dinner at someone’s house….
I love these. These are my go to’s over store bought pot holders.
These are super easy!
Linda Nelson. I need some of these.
Toni Otto, this is the pattern I told you about a while back
Like these.
These are really great. Have made them and gave to family.
I’ve been making these for many years without a pattern.
Love these and they are easy to do
Make this one all the time. Try to keep cotton yarn on hand for this as a “Need a change”project when working on large projects. Love them
These only make “an amazing gift” for someone if you’re ten years old or younger. If you’re an adult, make something that’s actually nice for crying out loud. Unless someone has specifically asked you to make potholders for a specific reason. Otherwise it’s a “oh, you were bored for an hour and now I’m stuck with this strangely colored item that doesn’t match my kitchen decor, great, thanks” gift.
I’ve made a ton of these over the years. They are great. Not only a pot holder but great used as a trivia for hot dishes on the table and counter.
I made these years ago & just love ’em. I even made some without the hanging loop for the table to put the hot dishes on.
I still make these
They are fun To make
These are very nice
I’ve made tons of these. Fun & a great stash buster. Mom used to make them too. Caryl Bonenfant.
They are so wonderful!
I’ve made many of these also. Have several on hand now.
Do you need any? If so, will any color combo do or do you have a preference?
Connie Richardson anything you make I love. No color preference ❤️
What’s a stash buster
When you have leftover yarn or pieces of fabric.
I have lots of yarn I was gonna use. I’m never going to. Yell at me till I mail
I would LOVE that. I’ve used almost all of Kathy’s yarn that Jennifer gave me. Some of that is in your scarves I made. Love u.
