    Default Need frying pan handle cover details

    I did a craft show this past weekend and more than one shopper ask for these. I have a general idea on how to make but would like to hear other ideas. Fast and Simple, please. TIA, Annie

    I have seen them made from the square put holders with the hanging loop. You simply fold the pot holder in half and top stitch down one side and the bottom. Voila! handle cover with a little loop for hanging.

    I made a few for my own use (gas stove, metal handles - ouch!) - just made them like a padded eye glass case.

    I've had mine for years...because i mostly cook with a cast iron skillet. Bought inexpensive pot holders, folded in half and sewed up one side and along one end. Most started out as 6 x 6 potholders. Done a little "fancier" they make great small gifts.

    There is a free pattern at So Sew Easy. Just search "hot pan handle"

    I make them for sale tables from potholders but I use the Lodge pan handle cover. They are dishwasher safe and heat will not penetrate. A big seller at the last craft show I went to was the round lid covers. I didn't buy one, wish I did now to see how it was made. I do know a pony tail band was used for the elastic.

    ....round lid cover ? I'm not sure I know why? Made from fabric, for storage? Sorry for this silly question...maybe I need another cup of coffee!

    Default round know pot holder

    I make these pot holders. Good for crockpots. I just leave mine on the pot while cooking. (Ignore the needlebook next to it on the picture.) These take about 7 minutes to make.

    I never seen this thing before but I like it. Is there elastic inside?

    Love this idea for the crockpot - which I use frequently! Is this your own design/pattern, or is it available somewhere?
