About the Yarn
I’m a big fan of using what you have on hand, so I used some left over Lion Brand 24/7 cotton in Amber – I say that but I’m conflicted about whether it was the amber or the camel as I don’t have the label. Regardless, it was spot on for the whole pumpkin pie look. I also used some left over Sugar and Cream in Ecru for the edging and the the tiniest bit of straight white cotton yarn for the dallop of whipped cream. I toyed with the idea of using the ecru for the whipped cream, too, since this is going to be used in a kitchen where it’s sure to get dirty and ecru might camouflage it – but I’ll have to do that next time instead because making the whipped cream white on this one was too much fun.
This isn’t the first time I’ve used this yarn, but I’d forgotten how nice it feels in your fingers.
About the Tools
I opted for my 5.0 mm Clover Armour crochet hook – which sized up the potholder perfectly – not too big or small.
To weave in the ends, I reached for my Susan Bates Weaving Needles. I know that’s no surprise to you 🙂
