Black Cat Potholder

black cat potholder

Last year’s Black Cat Keychain pattern was a big hit, so this year I have enlarged it a bit to be a potholder. Using only 12 yards yellow and 30 yards black cotton worsted, you probably have enough in your stash to make a few of these kitty cats.

Materials:

Cotton worsted yarn:

12 yards yellow

30 yards black

Size G (4.0 mm) crochet hook

 Finished cat measures approximately 7” wide

 Directions:

Body:
