Crochet: Leftovers Potholders
Left with some unused yarn after completing a knit or crochet project? Pull out that multitude of hastily wound yarn balls and deflated skeins to whip up this recipe for quick, easy, and useful hot pads. Mix, blend, and clash your assorted leftover yarn for a deliciously simple design. Another raveler on Ravelry.com said her grandmother made something similar to this and called them Magic Squares.

That’s a great idea, thank you!
You have a lovely blog. I came across it on the Ravelry MN group (saw you were one of the “new kids”). I too have three boys. It’s always nice to see what other mamas with similar interests are up too!
