Happy Potholder Crochet Pattern with tutorials

Add some handmade happiness to the kitchen by crocheting these puffy stitches and watching the colours wave up and down as the rows emerge.

The pattern has been designed so the Happy Potholders are easy to make:

• the rows are crocheted the same and the next yarn colour is always waiting at the end
• there’s only a couple of yarn ends to sew in
• there are  tips throughout the pattern so the 3 yarn colours don’t get tangled

There’s bonus instructions on how to wet block and wash the Happy Potholder so the crocheted stitches look even and beautiful.

It’s fun to make the Happy Potholder with different colour combinations!

skill level – easy

The pattern includes simple stitch patterns as well as carrying the yarn up the side of the crocheting. Take your time and carefully follow the instructions for the first 4 rows, and from then on the same row is repeated again and again.

You will learn how to:

• skip stitches
• do an extended double crochet (UK terminology) / extended single crochet (US terminology)
• how to carry the yarn up the side of the crocheting
