Free Crocheted Pot Handle Cover Pattern

Finished handle cover shown is 5″ long and 1-3/4 to 2″ wide

Materials:
1 oz) T-yarn cut about 1/2″ wide and stretched or chunky rug yarn

Hook: J (6 mm) crochet hook

Rnd 1
Using T-yarn or regular yarn, ch 10 and join with Sl St to form a ring.

Check your opening to make sure it is wide enough to fit over your pot handle after the first few rounds. Add a few more ch sts to your beginning chain to make a wider handle or decrease your ch sts for a smaller handle opening.

Rnd 2 -13
Ch 1, work Sc in each st around, do NOT join but just continue working Sc around in each stitch until cover is desired length. At end of last round, Sl St into last 3 St of rnd to create a smooth edge for your ending round. FO.

For my cast iron skillet cover, I crocheted 13 rounds but you can add or decrease the number of rounds you crochet to get the correct length of your handle cover.

Closing the end
Close the end of your handle cover by attaching either a contrasting color or the same color of yarn. When using T-yarn, the beginning chain stitches always was wider for me than my final round so I attach my T-yarn with a Sl St on the wider end as my skillet handle is wider there.

Contrasting option:
Work Sc around evenly by inserting your hook into Sc from the first row rather than into the chain round. This creates a spike stitch look. At end of rnd, don’t join. Just continue around top to close working now by working *1 Sc over next 2 sts* (1 Dec made). Repeat between * to end of rnd. Cut yarn leaving a small tail to use to weave under to completely close the end.

Simple option:
Using yarn, attach with Sl St to beginning opening edge. Sl St through both layers of the end flat to close the end. FO and weave under ends and close opening completely.
