Fall Gingham Hot Pad

"Fall Gingham Hot Pad is such a cute kitchen and dining crochet piece for autumn! It uses worsted weight nonmercerized cotton yarn in white, orange, and a twist version of the two colors. If you can't find a third yarn that combines the two other colors in this way, you can also use a lighter shade of the orange in its place. You will also find matching patterns for a dishcloth, placemat, and kitchen towel on my website so that you can make a whole set of fall gingham!"
