How many yards do these take ? I need to make 30 for a project and im not sure ill have enough yarn for it.
Kati Brown
It would depend on your tension and what kind of yarn you use. Since they are fast, I would recommend making one and weighing it or frogging it and measuring for an accurate yardage.

Fantastic pattern. I’m making some to use as appliques on elf Christmas hats. I don’t know what Terry meant about crab stitch as I don’t see that in the pattern but after she makes hotpads it’s a great edging to put on those
Kati
Ruth, thank you! I agree the crab stitch would be a great way to finish this. I have a tutorial for the stitch if you need it. 🙂

I used a L hook,added rows to make a placement. I am not good at reverse singles so I just did singles. Using the L hook I added 3 rows make two put them together and made hot pads. Thank you very much. The pattern is easy and they came out looking great.
