Scallop Hot Pad

Hi everyone! Today I’m sharing my newest beginner crochet pattern, the Scallop Hot Pad. To make this hot pad, you will crochet two panels and sew them together to make them extra thick. The texture on them is just wonderful!

The Scallop Hot Pad is made using 100% cotton yarn in two different colors. However, this cotton hot pad would be pretty in just about every color combination out there. The possibilities are truly endless!

For the Scallop Hot Pad, I used Hobby Lobby I Love This Cotton. However, you can use whatever cotton yarn you’d like. I also used a size H-8 (5.0mm) crochet hook. I highly recommend using my favorite crochet hooks, Clover Amour. You will also need a tapestry needle and a pair of scissors. Gather your supplies and let’s begin!
