We had tons of fun being a part of an enormous rainbow of pot holders during our Double-Thick Pot Holder Knit-Along! In our Double-Thick Pot Holder Zoom + Knit recordings below, you can catch up on all the techniques you need to make your pot holder and also see fellow knitters’ progress, live and on camera. Enjoy the recordings of our calls anytime, and note that we list under each video the time stamps where we explain different techniques, so you can skip ahead if you want. If you haven’t started your pot holder yet, get the free Double-Thick Pot Holder pattern and cast on with Sunshower Cotton!
