I've been working on these little potholders for some time now. I don't usually crochet much in the summer, but I figured I might as well do something while I was watching the Olympics.
So, here you have it... some colorful stripey potholders.
If you are wondering about the pattern.... I didn't use one really. I just single crocheted rows of 28 until I felt like changing colors. I made one stripey side and one plain side joined together by single crochet all around. Maybe one day I'll write an official pattern..... we'll see :)

Very nice. I'm on a crochet kick, also. Last year when I made potholders, I did one sc and one dc and repeated this pattern for a textured look and feel. I seldom use a pattern, I just design as I go. Love the colors you chose, are they you kitchen colors?
I like those colors together. Good work! I just wasted a lot of time during the Olympics. :)
These are really cute. I love the colors...reminds me of the ocean. I'd love to see what the plain side looks like, too. I'm impressed you were productive while watching the Olympics!
Great idea. It's a good way to use up yarn too.
Kim's right. This looks like a great way to use up some yarn! I need more potholders, so I think I'll give this a try. Thanks for posting!
