Woven Potholders
Weave a potholder for mom! Make one to match her kitchen, make one for each special holiday and make one in her favorite colors.

You need:

• Weaving Loops
• Weaving Loom
• Embroidery Floss and Needle (optional)

Instructions:
Stretch loops across the loom, filling all the pegs. The cross weaving is done by pushing the supplied hook through the loops under and then over each set of loops, hooking over the peg at each end.

To finish the edges, begin at one corner and slip several loops off the pegs, slip loop two through loop one, then loop three through loop two, then loop four through loop three. Continue all around, leaving the last loop for hanging.

You can decorate your potholder with embroidered poinsettia or daisies. Click here for stitches.
