Just an Inch of Color Potholders Free Crochet Pattern

The Just an Inch of Color Potholders Crochet Pattern is a great Scrap Busting project.  It calls for the use of at least 2 different colors of #4 ply Cotton Weight Cotton. 

Each color change is just an inch, that’s how it got it’s name.  There are 2 sizes to choose from inside this pattern, but the sizes are easy to customize. 

This design is an eco-friendly way to cut back on the use of store bought hot pads/potholders.  The finished Potholders can also be used as Coasters, Mug Rugs, Hot Pads, Trivets, and can even be used as Napkins.

You can find an Ad-Free Premium Copy of my Just an Inch of Color Potholders Crochet Pattern at my Ravelry Store at a discounted price of $2.50.

 

My testers did a fantastic job!  Thank you Christina Anderson, Martha Camacho Kelly, Nancy McKain, Amanda Suder and Thomas Williams for testing the Just an Inch of Color Potholders Crochet Pattern!

As you can see there are so many beautiful colors and variations you can use to create your own versions. 

 

Information needed to make your own potholders.

I used Premier Just Cotton #4 ply Medium Weight Cotton Yarn.  (87 yds/80 m) (1.76 oz/50g)

Materials:
MC: 100-150 yds #4 Medium Weight Cotton Yarn
CC:  150-200  yds #4 Medium Weight Cotton Yarn
US D or 3.25mm Crochet Hook
Scissors
Tapestry Needle

Abbreviations/Stitches Used:
ch = chain
st = stitch
sc = single crochet
dc = double crochet
rep = repeat
MC = Main Color
CC = Contrasting Color
RS = Right Side
WS = Wrong Side

Finished Sizes:
4” x 6”
6” x 6”

Notes:
due to different thicknesses of cotton yarn, you may need to go up or down a hook size.

The hot pad crochet pattern can be customized to create the perfect size for you.

I changed colors after every 3 rows, but you can use as many colors as you like.

Gauge:
US D or 3.25 mm Crochet Hook
16 st x 12 rows = 4”

Gauge Swatch:
R1:  ch 17, sc in 2nd ch from hook, dc in next st, *sc in next st, dc in next st  rep from * across. ch 1, turn (16 st)

R2-R3: *sc in 1st st, dc in next st. rep from * across. ch 1, turn (16 st)

R4-R12: rep R2-R3

Customizing:

The Potholder/Hot Pad can be customized if you prefer a bigger or smaller size.  Below is a breakdown of the amount of stitches and rows you can add or subtract for your specific size.

1” = 4 st x 3 rows

2” = 8 st x 6 rows

3” = 12 st x 9 rows

4” = 16 st x 12 rows

**Tip:  Weave in your ends of yarn as you go**

When you are fastening off your ends, why not try weaving in your ends when you start the next row. 

This helps keep your edges straight.

* Leave at least a 4” tail of yarn.  

*When starting a new color, weave in the color you just fastened off and new color as you start crocheting your next row.  

That’s it!  You have made your version of the Just An Inch of Color Potholders!  The potholders can be made in so many beautiful colors to match your Home Decor.  

I would LOVE to see what you create!

Snowflake Placement
Snowflake Placement

Step 1:
Count over 12 stitches from the edge.  (This will be the center of your Napkin)

Step 2:
From the beginning row of your Napkin, count up 9 rows.  (This will be the center of your Napkin)

Step 3:
Line up the middle of your Snowflake in the center of your Napkin.

Attaching your Snowflake to Napkin

There are some suggestions below on how you can attach your Snowflake to your Napkin.  

I hot glued mine evenly around using the tips of the Snowflake. This allows your Snowflake to lay flat when you want to use the Napkin.

  • You can hot glue it to the center of the Napkin
  • You can sew it to the center of the Napkin
  • You can take it down by sewing the tips of the Snowflake to the Napkin

You can use the suggestions above or use your own method to keep your Snowflake from coming off of your Napkin.

Tuxie Keyhole Scarf Crochet Pattern

The Tuxie Keyhole Scarf Crochet Pattern came to be because I was watching a friend’s dog, Tuxie,  for a few days.  He’s a small dog and he was always shivering. 

So, I decided to make him something to keep him warm and make him more adorable too.  You can crochet the Keyhole Scarf to accessorize your woof-ing dog and make a purr-fect accessory for your cat.

R2-R12:  *sc, hdc in next st. rep from * across.  turn (12 st)

Special Notes:

  • Because there are so many different sizes of cats and dogs, the pattern is easily customized.
  • To easily customize the fit to your pet, measuring their neck size would be a great help for you to figure out the perfect fit to it.
  • Because this is a scarf, if you are customizing it, I suggest measuring between their ears to the bottom of their chest and doubling the measurement.  
  • A helpful tip is to remember the even st is the hdc and the odd st is a sc 
  • Below are 3 suggested sizes.

Flower Pet Collar Crochet Pattern

Flower Pet Collar Crochet Pattern

The Flower Pet Collar Crochet Pattern is a fast and easy design that can be easily customized to fit any sized pet.  When my son’s dog was a pup, he started to put scarves and shirts on her to make her look pretty.  He asked me to make a scarf for her. 

Now I can’t stop designing accessories for her.  I even started designing things for my cat Maze because I couldn’t leave her out from looking pretty. 

Inside this crochet pattern you will find a crochet pattern for the Collar and a crochet pattern for a Flower.
