A Swedish cottage is not a Swedish cottage without the addition of some rustic crocheted potholders! Okay, admittedly I am no expert having only visited Sweden once, this past summer, but we did rent five different properties and the two that had crocheted potholders proudly displayed happened to be the lovliest kitchens to boot! So, if you have already tried your hand at a ribbed crocheted potholder, maybe it is time to try something a bit more adventurous, namely a checkerboard potholder or a basket weave potholder! I am not providing the patterns for either of these, but rather photos to inspire you to create your own rustic crcoheted potholders…
