Pinwheel Sandwiches
These fun Pinwheel Potholder crochet patterns come with a bonus. A recipe for Pinwheel Sandwiches. They are made by removing the crusts from a loaf of bread.
Then spreading each slice with any filling. One suggestion is cream cheese tinted with food coloring. Don’t know about that.
After spreading the filling on, roll up each slice like a jelly roll. Wrap seam side down in waxed paper, then chill for 1/2 hour. You can then slice them thinly.
And there you have it, a Pinwheel Sandwich.

Pinwheel Potholder Patterns
The potholder patterns come from an American Thread Company Star Book No. 55 titled Star Potholders dated 1947. The nice thing about this Star booklet is it has recipes included with each of the patterns.

What Materials Do I Need?
The potholders are made with American Thread Company “De Luxe” Mercerized and Knitting Cotton in white.
Cotton is the best choice for potholders. Wool is also an option, but stay away from acrylic and polyester because they can melt when hot.
Some alternatives to this discontinued yarn are:
Lily Sugar ‘N Cream The Original 100% Cotton Yarn
Bernat Handicrafter Cotton Yarn
Drops Merino Wool Extra Fine Yarn
The next material required is “Star” Pearl Cotton, Size 5 in blue. As well as a crochet hook No. 7.
