Doubleface crochet tutorial, humorous potholders with kitchen sayings

Product description

Are you passionate about cooking or know someone who loves to cook or at least try? With these potholders crocheted in doubleface technique, you can bring this theme into your kitchen in a humorous way. The instructions contains 4 different motifs (1 picture, 3 short sayings).

If you like needlework and also want to try a new technique, this tutorial is for you. The doubleface technique is not difficult to learn, but offers the possibility to create truly individual potholders. Whether for yourself or as a gift for a loved one who likes dogs is up to you.

The special thing about these potholders is that you can create two completely different sides for one potholder. The technique also makes the potholders nice and thick and therefore insulating excellently. At the same time, you save on sewing the threads - except for the finish - as they are worked directly into the potholder.

If there is anything in the instructions that you do not understand or if you have any questions about the technique, please simply ask by e-mail.

Skills Required / What You'll Receive

Basic knowledge in crochet (chain stitch, single crochet, slip stitch) is required.

Level of difficulty: easy (for beginners)

Knowledge of the doubleface technique is not required. The technique is explained in detail in the instructions. If you are using this technique for the first time, you should first crochet a small test piece according to the instructions in order to grasp the principle. After that, implementation is not difficult anymore.

With this download you will receive a detailed, 18-page PDF file with the description and photos of the technique in German and English (US terminology). The description contains the graphic counting templates and colored number blocks for each row. In addition, instructions of the basic technique of doubleface crochet with enlarged photos and a video tutorial are provided.

Size Information

The finished pot holders have a size of approx. 19 cm x 19 cm.

Materials List

For a pair of pot holders you need about 4 balls of wool in two colors (e.g. Schachenmayr Catania or comparable quality: 100 % cotton, length 125 m per 50 g) and a crochet hook suitable for the thickness of the wool. For even color distribution, you will need 2 balls of wool in each of two colors. If both potholders are crocheted with the same main color, you will need 2 to 3 balls in the main color and 1 ball for the motifs.

If you like my instructions, I will be happy to receive a positive review.

    Da manche mit meiner Beschreibung der Grundtechnik des Doubleface-Häkelns nicht zurecht kamen, habe ich die Grundanleitung grundlegend überarbeitet und mit neuen Fotos und Grafiken versehen. Ich hoffe, jetzt ist die Anleitung für jeden verständlich. Zur Unterstützung gibt es noch ein Video, in dem gezeigt wird, wie die Technik funktioniert. Wer weitere Fragen hat, kann sich gerne per E-Mail oder PN an mich wenden.
