The 8th Potholder

On Monday I got confirmation that the most recent potholder for the Dazzling Dozen swap was received so here it is.

The pattern for this one is Annepaalandet's Potholder and I actually received one made by the designer (in red and white) in the first potholder swap I took part in. I really love it and I've been waiting for an opportunity to try the pattern myself.

I really like the results. I used mostly Tahki Cotton classic for this one because that's how it worked out color-wise. The colors in these pictures aren't quite true but they're close. The recipient liked the turquoise and brown combo so that's what I went with but I added a little soft yellow to make it pop.

I suspect that I may try this pattern again at some point and when I do I'll modify it a little so that I can get more of the saw-tooth rounds in. Other than that I'd make it again just as is.

My favorite color combo! Nicely done. You make me want to hook.
