I made a potholder! But this isn鈥檛 any old potholder, it鈥檚 my reconstruction of a potholder my great grandma made in the 40s.
Tumblr media
My potholder is made with cotton yarn so it won鈥檛 melt like her acrylic yarn has, and I didn鈥檛 use rubber Mason jar rings as the basis of my rings like she did. The green and orange is her original potholder.
Tumblr media
As you can see, it鈥檚 been though some things and the rubber rings on the inside are starting to degrade to the point where I鈥檓 uncomfortable handling it.
This was my first time making a pattern from someone else鈥檚 finished object and I had a lot of fun. I鈥檓 sure my great grandma used a published pattern, but I couldn鈥檛 find one on APL or on Ravelry.
I鈥檝e put the pattern up on my Ravelry store for free if anyone is interested. It鈥檚 not pattern tested or anything, so be aware of that.

Made a cat grass today. The pattern is here
I used weight 3 yarn for the cat and weight 4 yarn for soil and succulent so the cat looks slightly smaller compared to everything else.

A thing I love to do is telling prepper dudes that one of my disaster readiness skills is making stuffed animals. They never get it. Like, my dude, when things get very bad and we're all sharing overcrowded shelters, you're gonna want the power to comfort children. Trust me.

upside to making a gauge swatch: your stuff comes out the intended size
downside to making a gauge swatch: why the FUCK is this not a square, what am I even supposed to do with this information >:(
