Tired of your towels slipping off handles and onto the floor? This crochet towel holder solves that problem! The texture of the yarn against the towel’s cloth keeps it from slipping and sliding.

13. Double Thick Potholder

Crochet potholders can be risky — if you have a loose tension or use a big, open stitch, it won’t do much good in protecting you from hot pans and dishes. That’s why this double-thick option is great! But it’s not two layers of fabric (that can be less-than-sturdy).  Be sure to use a cotton or wool yarn — acrylic will melt!
