J&P Coats Pot Holders Book No. 222 - 1945

This booklet has 31 patterns for potholders plus a few other things. The patterns use Pearl Cotton, Crochet Cord, Knit-Cro-Sheen and Cotton Rug Yarn. Some of these are potholders on their own with just the yarn and some have padding added. I'll be making one that has you add padding. In the meantime here are some of the more unique patterns.

A lot of these are basically make a square and put felt pieces on it to make it cute. These apples and the flower are good examples of that. I'm not sure why they chose to show the flower one upside down.

When I first looked at the second one I thought it was dinosaurs. Maybe because of the teethy edges. It's just ducks with very long necks. 

​The teapot is cute but the second one is a crocheted rectangle with bias tape sewn on.

This set is kind of fun. It has a case for the potholders.

Here's some of the more standard ones

​I'll be making #9436 from the photo below. I'm not sure if I'll be following the padding instructions but we'll find out next week.
