Counter Top Pads

These counter top pads are meant to be multi functional. They can be used as heat pads, either to set a hot pan on or remove a hot pan from the stove top or oven. They are also meant to be used to clean up minor spills and puddles of water around the kitchen.

I find that keeping towels in the kitchen usually leads to them being used as hot pads. And there are times when I need to clean up a spill that I've thought of using a pot holder.

This way, one item can do both things!

Approximately ten inches by ten inches, the front of each pad is made with 100% cotton yarn from Peaches and Crème brand yarn, using a complicated lotus stitch. This stitch adds a lot of bulk to the front of the pad, in a beautiful pattern. The back of the pad is cotton terrycloth, and the two sides are joined with a decorative cotton print fabric.

If you wish for me to use a specific print pattern for the border, please let me know where I can find this. If it is more expensive than the fabric I typically use, ($4 a yard) I will factor the difference into the final price of your order. Otherwise, will select a coordinating fabric myself.

Please list the color of the yarn you wish me to use and be sure to include the four digit product number when filling out the form.
