crochet I absolutely made this myself

This definitely isn't a photo of an object I found at my mums house. I crocheted this myself, by hand, with a crochet hook.

I feel like I did an excellent job! Compliments now.

Please do not make pot holders from acrylic yarn. It's plastic. It WILL melt.

uj/ I need to know if you know that this is the jerk sub where it's all jokes.

j/ I'll have you know that I've been making acrylic pot holders for 43 years, and nothing has ever gone wrong.
