I found the most fun pattern ever! I love it for a few reasons:
1. Crochets up really quickly.
2. Pattern is so easy...no need to keep reading the instructions.
3. Many options for personalization/colors4. Gorgeous result.
And get ready..........these photos were taken in my new light box with my.........
iPhone 4!!!!!!!!
You need a light box!!!!!

| The notch up at the top is the unfinished thread.........waiting for the 2nd side to be added. I tucked it under for photo purposes. |
This pot holder is halfway done. There is a second side to it and I can't wait to jazz it up with other colors. Isn't this the neatest project? I made this in less than an hour - honestly. 2 months into crocheting........go try this pattern!! I'm adding this to another project for a friend......and I'm betting she won't see this before I mail it off. Maybe she'll surprise me. lol
Free Pattern - Scalloped Pot Holder - HERE.
Do you know how I found it? I ran across Sarah London's blog....and her "iCrochet" page, where folks can add a link to their crochet projects. It is so inspiring....all those projects. Check it out!!
I may be joining THESE parties.
Looks really nice! That light box thing...I still think it's amazing! :)
ReplyDeleteYour light box photos are great. I wish I could but rooms in a light box. Your pot holder is adorable.

Lovely!! Lightbox takes good pics I see..hmm I need one too!!
ReplyDeleteAren't you just full of suprises! Who would have thought after only 2 months you'd be such a grand crocheter! Job well done :) Do you have any other crochet projects on the go? Can't wait to see more!!! xxx Take care
ReplyDeleteCheri - this is perfect timing! I recently challenged myself to make a beautiful potholder AND to use it (my current potholders are dreadful). Thanks for the great link.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are looking fantastic. Also your crocheting!
You really are creating a lot. Looks good.
ReplyDeleteWow those are awesome! My gramma taught me to knit years ago, I'm working on a massive afghan right now, but crocheting looks fun!
ReplyDeleteI made this potholder, too! I like your colors!! I'm going to have to do another one with various colors, I think. =)
ReplyDeleteI just want to let you know that I featured your light box from Masterpiece Monday, on "My Top Ten Fav Picks" at Boogieboard Cottage. Thank you for sharing it, it's so clever! Have a nice weekend, Mary :O)
ReplyDeleteI actually just made a light box myself and love the results. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteI love Pricilla Hewitt's patterns. This scalloped Potholder pattern is a lovely adaptation of a vintage pattern, if I recall correctly.
ReplyDeleteYour potholder came out lovely. I have yet to make the other half of mine. LOL.
As for iCrochet. It's a terrific way to show off your crochet and get great inspiration from others. Don't miss out. Hope to see you there.
