Edging:
With right side facing you, sl st in between any of the shells
ch1. Sc in next 7 sts. Sc in between the 2 shells
ch1. Sc around the row below (you’ll have to turn the potholder a bit to reach the row below – row 6)
ch1. Sc around row 5
In row 4, you have skipped 2 sts, sc into the one on the right, ch1, then sc into the the one on the left
ch1. Sc around row 5 (you are headed back up now – right next to the previous ones)
ch1. Sc around row 6
ch1. Sc around row 7
Repeat this pattern until you are right back to where you started. At this point you can add a loop by: 12 sc, sl st to same sc. Fasten off.
If you would like to add a ring around the center(pictured in the blue/green potholder above): Sl st into any sc around r4, sc around, fasten off.
Experiment with different hooks to give you different sizes. Add embellishments, try different color patterns, etc..
TIP: You will have to block this when you are done as the pot holder is a bit on the curly side.
Happy Hooking!
