Image of Pot Holder / Hot Pad
This is a great beginning project -- the hotpad is luxuriously thick and won't develop thin spots like store-bought potholders!

GAUGE:

5 sc = 2 inches; 8 rows = 3 inches. BE SURE TO CHECK YOUR GAUGE. When you match the gauge in a pattern, your project will be the size specified in the pattern and the materials specified in the pattern will be sufficient. If it takes you fewer stitches and rows to make a 4 in. [10 cm] square, try using a smaller size hook or needles; if more stitches and rows, try a larger size hook or needles.

POTHOLDER: With 3 strands of yarn held together, ch 21.
Row 1: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across (20 sc). Ch 1, turn.
Row 2: Sc in each sc across. Ch 1, turn. Rep Row 2 until piece measures 8" from beg.
Last Row: Sc in each sc across, end (ch 10, sl st in last sc made) for loop. Do not fasten off.
Edging Row: Ch 1, sc in same space as last sl st, then sc in each row-end st along the side of potholder to next corner, 3 sc in corner, sc in each st of starting ch to next corner, 3 sc in corner, sc in each row-end st along opposite side edge of potholder. Fasten off.

Pot Holder / Hot Pad Reviewed by Lori K Johnson on 2013-05-08 *****
This is a great pattern, I love it. Works up fast and looks great. I'm going to try to do it with 2 strands and see how it turns out. Using 3 strands is a nice thick pot holder/hot pad.
I will be making lots more for gifts.
