Pattern: Flower Potholder by Jennifer Martin
Hook used: G
Yarn Used: Sugar and Cream Cotton Yarn in Yellow, Rose Pink, Jute, Robins Egg Blue , Tangerine, and White.
This potholder is my reason for doing potholder week. It's just as perfect as I dreamed it would be! However, I must say Sugar and Cream yarn is the bane of my existence as a crocheter. I hate it so much. It doesn't feel good to crochet (or knit) with and it hurts my wrists every time I use it. I went and got some I love this cotton from Hobby Lobby tonight to use the rest of the week.
Haven't tried crocheting with it but knitting with Sugar n' Cream was never something I enjoyed. I had a Groupon for L&B Yarn Co so just picked up some cotton yarn that, so far, I enjoy working with (will have to check the label for the brand). It's a little splitty but not bad.
Love that potholder! Such a pretty design and the colors you picked are gorgeous. Looks like a springy peacock.
