{My Crocheted Potholders with Rose}

Just would like to show you, my previous crocheted, potholders with ROSE.
We have been lucky for having been taught knitting and crocheting at elementary school, back in The Netherlands!
Done in white with green, red and yellow edging in a crab stitch (kreeftensteek in Dutch)
These are not new but have known many years of duty!

Have you crocheted some potholders as well?

    Such pretty potholders!! I like them. The color of the combination is perfectly pretty. Look still new even they have been used for many years!
    Have a good weekend, Mariette.

    Ook mij werd op de lagere school de basis van haken en breien bij gebracht, maar ook niet meer dan dat. Zulke mooie pannelappen met roos zijn daar niet onder mijn handen vandaan gekomen en bij niemand van mijn klasgenootjes.
    Wat ik er verder mee deed in mijn leven was een kwestie van proberen, hulp vragen aan moeder,oma,tante of buurvrouw en doen.
    Breien ging me altijd al redelijk af en er zijn draagbare werken en werkjes van de breipennen gekomen.
    Maar voor haken heb ik nooit feelings gehad,maar omdat mijn lieve schoonmoeder een ster was in haken hebben ook in mijn keukentje de mooie pannelappen gehangen.
    Ach,een mens kan niet overal goed in zijn hé, zal dat ook nooit over mezelf beweren of me op een voetstuk plaatsen en laat dat aan de ander over.

    Fijn weekeind,
    Ger

    Ja dat leerden we allemaal op school. Ik moest een ballennetje haken om je kaatsenballen in te doen. Waar hebben we het over zal de jeugd denken. Maar toch is het goed om dit soort handvaardigheden te leren want je hebt er toch je leven lang plezier van. Later heb ik hele gordijnen gehaakt en eindeloos truien gebreid. Dat roosje in het midden moet moet wel een gepriegel geweest zijn.

    Dearest Mariette,
    What memories you bring back! Potholders were the first things I made when my grandmother was teaching me to knit and crochet. I think I was about ten, I do know that by the time we were learning how to knit in junior high school home economics, I was allowed to make a sweater because I was so far ahead of everyone in the class.
    Have a lovely long week end..............*s*

    Good Afternoon Mariette, Your potholders are so lovely and they put me in mind of springtime. I did not learn to crochet at school, but when I was in my 20's a friend taught me. I made many granny squares and turned them into blankets and in the 1970's I crocheted a poncho as they were so fashionable. I think I need to find my crochet hooks and start crocheting again.... that would be fun.
    Enjoy your weekend.
    Best Wishes as always.
    Daphne

    Your potholders are beautiful. I love the pretty design very much. I did learn crocheting and knitting in elementary school, but didn't create anything outside the class, except for one scarf. I have no idea how you can create such lovely roses! They must brighten your kitchen :-)

    Nee...al heb ik dus ook haak en brei les gehad op school, we hoefden geen pannenlappen te haken, maar ik mocht al Barbie kleding haken en breien...moderne school hadden, ondanks dat het een Brabants grens gehucht was...Ik ben nog altijd dankbaar dat ik het geleerd heb op school, ik vind het een verarming dat ze deze en andere handvaardigheden nu niet meer leren.....Maar goed, het is weer een hype, dus diegene die het niet geleerd heeft, die kan het intussen ook...al is het van FB :)

    Drie maal raden wat mijn lievelings les was ....
    De handwerkles !!!!!! o jee ...nu krijg ik dadelijk weer heimwee ...
    Wij hadden en handwerkles en handvaardigheidles ...
    Ja ik ben daar ook heel blij mee ,dat we die lessen op school leerden .
    want hier in griekenland leeren die kinderen dat niet ...een beetje tekenen en dan heb je het ook gehad .....Die pannenlappen zijn wel erg mooi ,en ze zijn weer helemaal hip ....
    heel veel liefs en een fijne zondag ..xxx

    I also learned knitting and crochet in school, back in the old days...
    I have similar potholders but I no longer use them, I have them in a box with other crocheted doilies.

    Ma sono bellissime queste presine Mariette! Ma che meraviglia, una combinazione di colori perfetta, e la lavorazione, tridimensionale, decisamente d'effetto. Complimenti. Paola

    Dear Mariette, they are very pretty. I do not know knitting and crocheting, but my mum does, and has made so many beautiful things, and it means a lot when you know how much time they have made into it:-) Hugs

    My mommy LOVES crocheted work. She never was able to get the hang of crocheting or knitting so whatever her grandparents gave her is still in use. She just always did complicated embroidering.

    I thought you only did fine crochet. The potholders are very pretty. I recently made one with granny squares. I should post about my recent projects. Have a good day.
