Who doesn’t love butterflies? Now you can have them in your kitchen with this crochet pattern for a butterfly pot holder.

Made with Lily Cotton Yarn or Sugar ‘N Cream Yarn, you can choose your colors to match your kitchen. This yarn is a soft, 4-ply cotton that works up quickly. The heavier weight gives good hand protection from hot pans.

This would make a great bazaar sale item too.

The photo is in black and white, but you can see several different color yarns were used to make this beautiful butterfly.

Here are some definitions and abbreviations you’ll need for this pattern:

The crocheted butterfly is made in sections then joined by sewing the parts together. A yarn covered bone ring is added for hanging and the back is lined with cloth.

Here’s the directions. You’ll also find the one page PDF file to download below.
