Blessed day friends and fellow needleworkmonday. I wish you a beautiful day. Today I share with you a simple project that I was making last night, which served as entertainment and relaxation. It is a pot holder and a pot holder mat.
Yesterday while I was cleaning my kitchen I realized that I needed a mat to place the hot pots on the table or on the counter. So in the evening after finishing my chores I looked for yarn and needle and started knitting.
For this type of kitchen projects my favorite material is pabilo yarn, either raw or colored. This thread is ideal for rugs, tablecloths and pot holders because it is very resistant to heat, the projects are very firm and the best thing is that we can wash them and the thread does not lose its color. Of course, with frequent use they get softer and there comes a time when they need to be replaced, which is not a problem because the Pabilo is very cheap and easy to get.
When I looked through my box of wicks I realized that I had many small pieces of yarn in different colors so I decided to weave the mat to rest the pots on and also a new pot holder. I actually have several pairs of pot holders but most of them are just for decoration because I don't want to get them dirty hahaha. But with this one made of scraps I'm sure I'll get a lot of use out of it.
Making useful things for my home with my own hands is something that fills me with satisfaction, I am very happy to have the ability to knit and to create things that I can use in my daily life. So much for today's post, I greet you with love until next time. Blessings.
