Cotton Pots

Cotton Crochet Pots

These little pots are really handy for small craft supply storage.

Cotton Crochet Pot

I use sturdy dishcloth cotton yarn because it has a heavier bulky weight when crocheted so they hold their shape. They are still soft and collapsible.

The knobs are a button and a pony bead. I like the idea of a natural wooden bead, but the colorful button-bead combination is even better.

I enjoy making these and I hope to list some in my Etsy shop in August after we get back from a family trip we are taking out west. Etsy is fun but it takes a lot of effort to list new things constantly. I got distracted recently with quiltmaking and sewing for my family and I hope to go back to embroidering and crochet for the shop in the fall.

Happily, I have some baby projects to make. Our friends came home from the hospital this weekend with a long anticipated new member of the family. Hooray!
