Fruity Trivets + Pot Holders in Super Soft Merino
Remember our original Fruity Trivets and Pot Holders? Three years later, we’ve re-conceived this super cute, classic design, using the same exact pattern but now a different yarn!
This time we dipped into Purl Soho’s collection of Super Soft Merino and came up with blasts of rich, beautiful color. Sunshine yellow, party pink, hot orange, cool sprout green, and a dash of warm white, together create a palette as feelgood as summertime itself!

Hi pkett,
Excellent question! I added a note to the Materials list that answers your question: no, with the Super Soft Merino you do not have to double the yarn.
Thank you so much for straightening that out. Please let us know if you have any other questions!
