I have been a little time poor of late and as a result, craft time has been virtually non-existent.
However, try working in a store that stocks such beautiful materials, I just want to sit on the couch and crochet.
Not at all conducive to writing a paper that is due next week.
Anyway, these potholders are perfect for a quick craft fix, I get to play with colour and try out some new patterns without investing a lot of time.
The Debbie Bliss cashmerino aran is lovely to work with, so soft. Although, if you are going to be using the potholders I would suggest working in cotton.
Sarah is working on a little ‘yarn wall’ installation at the shop and these guys will be included, such a great way to showcase colour and the different types of yarn available.
Right in time for the cooler weather.
Have a great week x
Project details can be found on Ravelry.

Oh, can’t wait to see photos of that installation, complete with these lovely pieces. I have had my mind on pot holders and tea cosies of late. Must be the cooler weather and the addiction to cups of tea…
gosh, these are lovely Kate. Such scrummy colours & patterns. x
Ohmygoodness I am embarassed.
I just repinned your pot holders without even realising you’d made them.
I LOVE them!!
I hope you post a pic of them on the wall in the shop. x
Kate, you are a whizz! These look amazingly fabulous. I really better get a move on.
they look lovely & i would love to see them up on the wall too
good to see you back on the hook

They look most excellent. I really like that super textured one. Another vote for a wall shot. xx
Beautiful colours as always Kate :-)
Can’t wait to see the whole thing.
I love love love the one that looks like a chrysanthemum! Beautiful color choices.
