Trivet Crochet Pattern

In the summer months I tend to crochet more with cotton. I like to work with smaller, quicker projects while it’s hot outside, and this new trivet crochet pattern is the perfect quick, cotton yarn project!

  Ruth Allen; Dear Sarah: I will do my very Best for you! I absolutely Love Crocheting, I have been crocheting for years. Especially over the past 20 yrs. , & during the Pandemic. I joined a small crochet group, we met twice a wk., & I called myself The Happy (crochet) Hooker!!Each week, a new project. You would like to know the abbreviation chart of crochet signs: Do you have a Crochet book? If you do, at the back of the book; it will give you all the Abbreviations: sc= single crochet, dc= double crochet ch= chain, rep.= repeat, hdc = hfdc, I hope this can help you somewhat, Sarah. Your best bet is go to Youtube, or Google, and ask for a sheet of abbreviations. They will provide one for you. Good Luck, Ruth,

Oooh, really nice and thick! I've flagged this one in my browser favs, but am hoping you will also add it to your Ravelry page. That way I can save it there, too, and add it to my projects to try! :) Really love your home patterns. They're always so practical and unique. Kind regards, Jean -- mom of an adult daughter w CHD
