When it comes to crafting hot pads (or pot holders, depending on what you like to call them) you’ll come to the point of asking yourself: What is the best yarn to use?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is The Best Yarn To Use To Make Hot Pads?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cotton Yarn<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cotton yarn is ideal yarn to use when crocheting hot pads because it won’t melt and can easily wash it in a washing machine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You want to use a 100% cotton yarn, not a cotton blended yarn. Also, make sure that it does not have a coating on the cotton to make it have a slick or shiny appearance. Lily’s Sugar and Cream or the Peaches and Cream cotton yarns are perfect choices in yarn that meet all these conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, it’s important to note that no matter what cotton yarn you pick it is flammable and will catch fire if exposed to open flames.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
