Gigi Hotpad
"I have recently begun creating a series of hotpads that I'm calling Hot granny hotpads. This one is the Gigi Hotpad or potholder. It's created using tapestry crochet. You will make the colorwork with 2 colors in cotton yarn. The only stitches needed for the main piece is single crochet. If you wish to make the border you will need to know how to double crochet. It is an easy pattern for people who are new to tapestry crochet. "
