About this Pattern
If you’re looking for a quick one skein project this spring or summer, you’re in the right place. Our textured crochet trivet uses the loop stitch to add enough thickness to be a safe buffer between your table and a hot pot.
With this project you’ll get lots of practice with the loop stitch, a unique stitch that’s great for projects like this as well as rugs. You don’t need a ton of experience to work it either. It’s made up of basic stitches you probably already know how to crochet.
