Double-Knitted Potholders

So I finished my potholders!  (Why does it always feel SO good when you finish a project??)  I think they turned out awesome.  Once again, I got the pattern here.  I ended up making my own patterns (stripes and hearts) since the pattern doesn't instruct on when to change colors, etc. for the stripes.  Double knitting is so much fun!  I think it's so cool.  So cool, in fact, that I've already started my next project.  Here's a sneak peek:

Knitting Away

So I've been busy crafting a lot lately.  I have several projects to share... mostly ideas from Pinterest.  I'm not sure if anyone else has this problem, but I find so many cool ideas for projects and pin them on Pinterest, but I never tend to find the time to actually DO them.  I guess lately I've had a little more ambition than normal.  :)

So today I'm working on a double-knit potholder.  I found the original pattern here.  I changed it up and added my own twist.  This is what I have so far.

I'm hoping to write up my pattern for my ravelry page once it is finished.  This is my first try at double knitting and I'm loving it so far.

Check back soon for those other projects I was talking about!
