"Sorry, I don't know of a video for that stitch pattern. I did make this project about 10 or so years ago and I remember that it did not really look like the picture until it was completed, while it was on the needles it looked like it wasn't lining up. Is it possible that is what is happening with you?"

"Hi, I can't find the knitting pattern for this book, can I have it please?"

"With the page open, right click on your mouse, this will open a new window, in the new window scroll down to and click on print. That will take you to print review, in print preview change "all" to just the pages that the pattern is on and click print. Using the cut and copy feature to paste the document into another program for printing is actually a violation of international copyright laws, but printing directly from the page is permitted. Hope this helps someone. Happy knitting!"

"This is not a free pattern, so not sure why it is still featured on an "all free knitting" website."

"Whomever labelled this a beginner pattern was having a laugh, beginner means basic knitting skills, it takes more than basic skills to complete this pattern."

"I have to thank my wonderful mother-in-law for providing the inspiration for this project! She recently sent me one of her favorite, handmade potholders. Her's was crocheted, likely by some lovely friend or family member. The pretty stripes and simple design inspired me to create my own knit version. The pattern is worked in the round, folded and the edges are joined to form the diagonals on the front and back. Its easier than it sounds. One skein of yarn is enough for one potholder."

This potholder pattern looks just right, nice and thick with a tight weave to make it perfect for holding hot things or being used like a trivet. With self patterning cotton yarn in so many varieties I'm sure I'll find colors to coordinate with my kitchen, or to make as gifts.

These are really thick and luxurious potholders, being double ply. Lily Sugar 'n Cream self-striping is great yarn to work with, too. Must make a set.
