How do you make a Textured Crochet Square Potholder



Crocheted Potholders are an easy way to spruce up a kitchen. I love crocheting potholders. Potholder crochet patterns work up quick and are great and are durable too. Crochet Potholders are absolutely versatile. By using different combination and variety of Crochet Stitches, you can give them a lovely textured look. They are both decorative and functional 

Potholders hotpads or trivets , whatever you call them , they are absolute essential for your kitchen. If you are looking for a simple crochet pattern that is perfect for your kitchen then this potholder design is it.Today am sharing the pattern for this Textured Crochet Square Potholder. You can easily make these hot pads bigger or smaller by adding or removing extra chains to your foundation and then crocheting more or fewer rows.

This pattern uses a combination of Single Crochet and Double Crochet Cluster stitch , worked in one stitch to create a pretty elegant textured pattern. These would make lovely gifts for housewarming or any other festive occasion.

Materials Used:-
8 Ply Cotton Yarn 
4 mm Crochet Hook

Round 1:-
Start with a Slip Knot.
Chain 42.
This measures around 11 inches.
You can adjust the size of the potholder by altering these stitches according to your requirement.


Round 2:-
1 Single Crochet in the Second Chain from the hook.
1 Single Crochet each in the remaining stitches.
Once you reach end, Chain 2 and turn.



Round 3:-
Skip 2 Stitches.
1 Single Crochet in the next stitch.
1 Double Crochet Cluster in the same stitch(i.e. in the same stitch of the Single Crochet.
**Usually while finishing the Double Crochet Cluster, you would Chain 1 and finish the stitch. Here while doing the cluster stitch do not Chain 1 at the end.
Repeat(Skip 2 , (1SC,1DC Cluster)- both in the same stitch)).
1 Double Crochet in the last stitch.
Chain 2 and turn.

To Make a Double Crochet Cluster Stitch:-
  1. Yarn over, insert the hook into the stitch, yarn over and pull through 2 loops on the hook.(This is same as doing a Double Crochet Stitch. It is just that , you don't finish the Double Crochet Stitch and continue doing the first part of the Double Crochet Stitch again and again).You should have 2 loops on the hook.
  2. Yarn over, insert the hook in the same stitch, yarn over and pull through 2 loops. You should have 3 loops on the hook.
  3. Continue with the first part of Double Crochet stitch untill you have 4 loops on the hook.
  4. Yarn over and draw the yarn through all 4 loops on the hook.






Round 4:-
**We will be working in between each of the cluster stitches.
1 Single Crochet in between the first two clusters.
1 Double Crochet Cluster in the same stitch(i.e. in the same stitch of the Single Crochet.
Repeat((1SC,1DC Cluster)- both in the same stitch) in between each of the clusters.).
1 Double Crochet in the last stitch.
Chain 2 and turn.




Round 5 Onwards:-
Keep repeating Round 4 untill the size needed.








Border Step 1:-
3 Single Crochet in the first stitch.(this will be the first corner)
1 Single Crochet in each of the stitches untill the next corner.
3 Single Crochets in the 2nd Corner.
Repeat (1SC) in each stitch and in the corners make 3 Single Crochets.
Slip stitch on top of the first Single Crochet.






Border Step 2:-
Chain 2(Not Counted as a stitch).1 Double Crochet in the same stitch.
3 Double Crochets in the next stitch (i.e. the middle stitch of the SC group). This will form the corner.
1 Double Crochet in each stitch untill the next corner.
3 Double Crochets in the corner stitch.
Repeat 1(DC) in each of the stitches and 3 Double Crochets in the corner stitches.
Slip stitch on top of the first Double Crochet and weave off.
