Didn't all grandma's have one or two of these beauties in their kitchen?
These hot pad holders were just for looking at...
you couldn't possibly use one could you?
This was a lot of crocheting for a touch-me-not.
I learned to crochet in the 1970's...
remember when those little granny square vests were so popular?
Well, that is why I taught myself to crochet.
Then in the 80's doilies were all the rage...again.
Because we can all remember when every surface in grandma's
house was covered with them.
Even the backs of these hot pad holders are pretty...
pure vintage.

ReplyDeleteI love the granny crochet pot holders. I have one that my mom used . . . I don't think she made it but her hands touched it! Love the teal and white of these.
ReplyDeleteI have several of these too and love them. They are so pretty and I just use them for display. I like the soft green in yours. Pamela
