Yes several readers guessed correctly. I am revisiting the old craft of making potholders that I enjoyed as a much younger person child.
Where the witchcraft comes in...there are several websites out there that have wizards where you can put in two colors and it will show you many patterns...one site has many potholder weaving charts in black and white so you can pick and choose your colors.
What fun! At least I think so. It gives my arthritic fingers and wrists a good workout!
I like the larger finished product of the Pro loom kit. The potholders finish at 8 inches by 8 inches...a very nice size for potholders or for a spot to sit a warm pot on your table.
As I recall from the "olden days" the potholders were very small and if you bought some of the inferior loops they would melt if they got too hot. I also recall that the loom was plastic and if you broke off any of the teeth your loom became useless.
I am using only cotton loops and the loom is metal. So far so good. I hope to make a few gifts.
I went to the Dentist...no cavities! Yeah me!
Far Guy sat outside for a short time, the air was less smoky.
Supper was pork chops and wild rice.
