Both these patterns are quick, easy, and use minimal yarn! This Heart Pot Holder crochet pattern uses 2 strands of cotton held together, making it thick and durable! It’ll work perfect for hot dishes or just looking cute in the kitchen. Try using different colors or different materials for the hanging loop!
