It happened. I was minding my own business… and I saw it. Cat potholders! But the potholders I saw had plastic eyes and a nose and was for decoration only, because, hello, plastic will melt! What?! Who does that?! If I'm making a potholder, you can bet you can actually use it to take a hot pot out of an oven! Or display it if you want. And speaking of melting, here's a little tip… if you use acrylic yarn, it probably WILL melt. So this potholder is made out of cotton yarn and is double thick to help protect your hands from the heat.

The Ripley Shawl is a beautiful, light, and a one skein pattern - and a free pattern with tutorials on Moogly! The Ripley Shawl pattern was be released in 3 parts, with 3 right and left-handed video tutorials. I love the gorgeous shells that make up part one - and I love that parts 2 and 3 get easier as you go! Part one is also the biggest section - and each row is unique! Made with Red Heart It's a Wrap Sprinkles, this shawl is a one-cake pattern. But you can make it bigger if you like in parts 2 and 3 - and that will require purchasing a second cake, so do keep that in mind.
