TOOLS & MATERIALS
Hook size 3.5 mm · Scissors and needle · Cotton yarn (weight/length: 50g = 105 meters) · 8/4 cotton yarn for embroidery · Small wooden button for decoration
POTHOLDER - make two
Every row is turned by chaining 1. Chain 31 and start in the second loop from the hook:
Row 1-35: 1 sc in each stitch (30)
The potholder consists of two sides, that are crocheted together. You can embroider both pieces, or just one. But remember only to embroider one side on each piece. Find the pattern at the bottom.
One cross stitch is made over 4 single crochets - two from the first row, and two from the row below. I outlined my potholder with sewing thread to guide me - which was easy to remove afterwards.
When you have fasten all ends of you embroidery, place the two pieces wrong side on wrong side, with the embroidery showing. Crochet all the way around through both loops on both pieces with sc's. To turn a corner, you have to make 3 sc in the same stitch.
When you have gone all the way around, you can fasten it or make a strap. Chain 15 and crochet 1 sc in each stitch starting in the second loop from the hook. Cut the yarn, fold the strap and sew it in place with the button.
REDSKABER & MATERIALER
Hæklenål 3.5 mm · Saks og nål · Bomuldsgarn (vægt/længde: 50g = 105 meter) · 8/4 bomuldsgarn til broderi · Lille træknap til dekoration
GRYPELAP - lav 2 stk
Hver række vendes med en luftmaske (lm). Slå 31 lm op og start i 2. maske fra nålen:
Række 1-35: 1 fm i hver maske (30)
Grydelappen består af to sider, der hækles sammen. Du kan brodere begge dele eller bare én. Husk dog kun at brodere én side på hver del. Find mønsteret i bunden.
Ét korssting laves over 4 enkelte fastmasker - to fra den første række og to fra rækken nedenfor. Jeg konturerede min grydelap med sytråd for at guide mig, hvilket var nemt at fjerne bagefter.
Når du har hæftet alle enderne af din broderi, placer de to dele vrang mod vrang, med broderiet synligt. Hækl hele vejen rundt gennem begge maskeled på begge dele med fm. Rundt om et hjørne, skal du hækle 3 fm i samme maske.
Når du har været hele vejen rundt, kan du hæfte garnet eller lave en lille strop. Slå 15 lm op og hækl 1 fm i hver maske, med start i 2. maske fra nålen. Klip tråden, fold stroppen og sy den fast med knappen.
