Christmas Potholders

It's been awhile since I've made some potholders so I decided to break out the holiday cotton yarn I had stashed away and get in the Christmas spirit.  I still have a little bit of yarn left over so I might make a few more to give away to friends and family. And I might make a few coasters as well.  The yarn I am using is Sugar 'n Cream in the Christmas Mistletoe Ombre. 

Slowly getting the hang of it

I'm slowly getting better at making potholders.  Although I don't think no matter how good I get they will ever compare to the ones my husband's grandmother made.  Hopefully, they are good enough to sell at one of the community flea markets that the base has every once in awhile.  I don't have high hopes that I will ever make much money off of selling my crocheted items but even just a few dollars here and there to go buy more yarn would be nice.  I'll probably wait until we get to Hawaii to try my luck at selling. The red and blue multi-color potholders were made with Bernat Handicrafter yarn and the solid blue ones were made with Sugar 'n Cream.
