Nana's Kitchen Potholder
"This Nana's Kitchen Potholder is a beautiful and practical potholder designed in tapestry crochet. The advantage of tapestry crochet is that it creates a solid and compact fabric without any holes. So, besides being decorative, this potholder is also very functional in the kitchen. The free pattern includes only written instructions, while the PDF pattern also has a chart. This potholder is part of my Farmhouse Collection of tapestry crochet potholders, which includes beautiful tapestry crochet designs of farmhouse animals."
