IT’S WINTER AGAIN! And it’s been a cold one this year, in the North East. Time to pick up the crochet hook. I was looking for a little project, and came across this pot holder I made back in 2018. So Pretty! Think this is it.
I copied the pattern as Patty’s Winterberry Pattern, January 2018. Tried to find it again on the internet, so I could link you to it, but was unsuccessful. I rarely buy patterns, so I got this for FREE someplace. So thank you Patty for sharing this pattern with me. Hope you don’t mind that I’m sharing it. I really appreciate it when someone shares a pattern, so I hope this will make someone’s day. If you see this Patty & do mind, let me know & I will take it down.
