Potholder pattern           
With light yellow...Ch 21.

Row 1: 1 sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each
        ch across. Ch 1, turn.     
Row 2: 1 sc in each sc across. Ch 1 and turn.
       Repeat 2nd row until you have the size
       to form a square. End off.
Edging: With constrasting color, 
        work 1 sc into 
        each sc around and working 3 sc in 
        each corner.
        At end of last sc work a ch 10 length
        of yarn and join into first sc of 
        edging to form a loop for hanging
        the potholder.
        End off. Darn ends in. 
 
Note: For potholders being used for very hot
objects it is best to use "heat resistant" yarn.
Polyester or nylon will melt when in
contact with high temperatures.

Another idea! For added protection...
Make two of the above potholder and 
sc them together to make one thick potholder.
