You CAN'T use acrylic yarn it has to be cotton because acrylic will MELT and you will get BURNED!!! I am surprised you are using and telling people to do this!!!  You should DEFINITELY take this post down!!! Also acrylic is FLAMMABLE!!!

I would think these kitten potholders would not be thick enough to prevent burns, they are cute but not as potholders!

These are very cute. I also would use cotton yarn.  I suggest lining them as well to ensure one doesn’t get burned from the yarn separating from a hot pan or plate…  you can do this by making your mitt, tracing the exterior, draw a line approx 1/2” or more inside traced line, cut and use as a pattern for heat protective fabric and a decorative flannel if desired. See up perimeter except at wrist end. Turn to right side and insert, turn under wrist hem and hand sew.

Acrylic will melt, but cotton will burn.  Choose the one you want.  

I think it would make a great hot pad to set hot dishes on.  Otherwise, line it.
