Crochet Modern Granny Kitchen Set

Crochet Modern Granny #MG Kitchen Set

Have you heard yet about our Crochet Instant Pot Challenge?  There are some really amazing entries so far, but I thought I'd come up with something a bit more simple if anyone would like to give it a try.  I have also crocheted a matching Hot Pad Coaster to go along with my Instant Pot Cover.

You all know how much I love crocheting using the Modern Granny or #MG technique.  This pattern is quite adaptable to any size round appliance you would like to cover.  You just create the circle until the top is covered, then just hook yourself down the sides of the pot.  Easy peasy.

The Hot Pad Coaster is double thick to protect your counters.  Be sure to only use cotton yarn as the acrylic yarn will melt if it gets too hot.
