Pretty Periwinkles Pot Holders

Here is the pot holder pattern I looked for days online only to find out it was in my crochet book collection!!! The pattern is the Pot Holder out of the Kitchen Caddy Set on page 50 of Captivating Crochet from The Needlecraft Shop. Works up quite easily.

Free Crochet Pattern.....

Cotton Dish Sponges

Peaches and creme or sugar n cream worsted weight cotton and a G or H hook
ROW 1:Chain 20, sc in 2nd chain from hook and in every other chain , turn
ROW 2-7:ch 2 and HDC in each stitch to end, now just turn and HDC in each remaining chain down the other side.
this will make a pocket purse type shape and just use a SC in each stitch to close it up.
ROW 8: ch 1 SC, HDC, SC in same stitch, sk next 2 spaces and do a sc, hdc, sc in every 3rd space around.
Adjust any you need to make sure the shell trim goes all the way around.
I have also made these with up to 30 chains to start for a bigger cotton sponge.
