Steps to Crochet Your Hanging Pot Holder
Follow these steps to create a sturdy and stylish pot holder that can handle hot dishes or simply beautify your space.
Step 1: Crochet the Base
- Start with a Magic Ring: This will be the center of your pot holder.
- First Round: Chain 3 (acts as the first double crochet), then work 11 more double crochets into the ring. Join with a slip stitch to complete the round.
- Second Round: Chain 3, double crochet in the same stitch. Work two double crochets in each stitch around. Join with a slip stitch.
Step 2: Build the Pattern
- Third Round: Chain 3, double crochet in the next stitch, then two double crochets in the following stitch. Repeat this pattern around. Join with a slip stitch.
- Additional Rounds: Continue adding rounds with gradual increases until you reach your desired size. For each round, add one more single double crochet between increases.
"This gradual increase creates a flat, round shape perfect for pot holders."
Step 3: Add Texture with a Raised Edge
- Raised Edge: For a textured edge, work a round of front post double crochets. This gives the pot holder a raised edge that’s easier to grip.
- Slip Stitch Finish: Finish with a round of slip stitches to create a firm edge.
Step 4: Make the Hanging Loop
- Loop Chain: At the edge, chain 10-12 stitches to create a loop.
- Attach Loop: Slip stitch into the base to secure the loop, then fasten off.
Step 5: Finishing Touches
- Weave in Ends: Use a yarn needle to weave in any loose ends.
- Block (Optional): Lightly dampen the pot holder and lay it flat to dry for a smooth, professional look.
