Crochet Pattern: Pot Holders / Granny Squares “The Little Prince”

This lovingly designed crochet pattern features two beautiful motifs inspired by The Little Prince:

The first motif shows the Little Prince standing on his tiny planet, the classic book illustration.

The second motif depicts the Little Prince together with his best friend, the Fox.

Both designs are worked as pot holders, but the motifs can also be used as granny squares and incorporated into sweaters, cardigans, bags, or coasters. The possibilities are endless!

Whether as a gift for a book lover or a charming decoration for your kitchen, I hope you enjoy creating these pieces :)
