Trinity Kitchen Towels and Potholder Set
Inspiration
Who doesn’t need some good old kitchen towels and potholders, especially at this time when things are opening up and people are starting to gather again together and share meals? Kitchen towels and potholders are a must-have product if you ask me. They are good to go to quick present to make and always best if you are doubt of what to make for someone. They are perfect as housewarming gifts, mother’s day gifts, and wedding gifts just to name a few. So I made these towels with a focus on the brighter side of life hoping for normalcy and get-togethers.
To make this possible, I participate in the At Home Blog Hop with Joanna Robinson to share the pattern with the world. Multiple designers are also sharing their different patterns, which focus on products that can help in the home. The patterns are offered as free PDF download on the day they are featured.

The Yarn
I used Lily Sugar n Cream Super Size 100% Cotton medium weight yarn in plain and Ombre colors. I love the yarn because it is thick and soaks up water very well. It is also available in so many colors that if you wanted to make for someone and wanted to march their decor, you are able to find the color.

Pattern Notes
Ch 2 counts as a stitch throughout the pattern.

Double crochet stitches are crochet in single crochet stitches of previous row and vice versa.
You can use a stitch marker to keep up on whether you are on row 2 or 3. It's optional.
