Free pattern: Teapot holder

TipNut is sharing a vintage pattern for a vintage craft: a teapot holder. It’s a kind of potholder, intended to protect your hand from the hot handle of the teakettle or teapot. How does it work? The layers of felt are joined everywhere except along the lower edge of the “saucer,” which fits conveniently over the handle. Even if you don’t handle hot kettles or pots, your kitchen probably needs this little accessory just for a spot of cheer. Get the pattern.
