Crochet Chicken Potholder

 

This Potholder pattern I found in one of my mother’s stash of pamphlets that was passed down to me. I didn’t know when I was making this fun project that hot-pads should be made out of cotton yarn,  and never add a plastic eye. Do not use acrylic Red Heart yarn. Cute as it is, this will have to be a decorative practice piece for now. The pattern was written by Bobbie Frazier and was posted in the Leisure Arts #281, Crocheted Potholders. 

 

Crochet Apple Potholder

 

This pattern had me right from the start. What a perfect addition to a kitchen. It is supposed to be a hot pad but with a plastic googly eye for one, and for two it is Acrylic yarn. You never want to set anything hot on Acrylic yarn it will melt. I learned that all on my own from a garage sale handmade potholder I bought. I enjoyed making this so much I made several, but I had no idea the yarn had to be cotton so this is one of those items I cannot really give to anyone unless they are willing to use it as decoration and not for use.

Here Comes Peter Cotton tail in a crochet chocolate bunny form! I made this in a day and I am so proud I only made it once and it turned out actually looking like a bunny on the first shot! :D I finished him off with a cute lime green ribbon.

These are all the pieces you make and then once attached the bunny looks like this
