Crochet Cactus Potholders
Crochet Cactus Potholders
"Cacti are happy, bright, summery, and fun - so Crochet Cactus Potholders are perfect for your kitchen! These thick squishy crocheted hot pads make great trivets too! The key to the Crochet Cactus Potholders is to use 100% cotton yarn - Red Heart Scrubby Smoothie! With cotton yarn, you can use these Cacti with hot dishes without worrying about melting your project on your next hot dish. The Crochet Cactus Potholders are a set - there’s a tall cactus and a ball cactus, both kitchen ready. But they aren’t limited to being just potholders! The tall cactus also would make a great oven mitt if you sew two of them together. And the Ball Cactus would be super cute under a real flower pot! However you use them, they are sure to brighten up your table."

Well since I am going to make some fake foam cactus plants why not these to go with them. These are so easy to make and take so little yarn it would be a shame to pass them by. I will use them as doilies. It's going to look so cool under my cacti plants.

Just one skein of red and one of green, and I can make BOTH of these cactus potholders? Hashtag gifting! I do not know why, but catci are so darn trend- right in 2018. I guess this new scrubby yarn must be something fabulous! I guess I am going to have to give it a try for myself.
