Sorry if your request has not been answered but it does appear the link Judy gave is for a round potholder.

• There are quite a few patterns shown on the web for a round potholder but not all of them are very clear in their instructions.
• Here is one that was listed before:
• goodknitkisses.blogspot.com/.../pattern-loom-knit-granny-round.html
• Here is another link but it requires a lot of "reading". You may have to download the pattern on your computer but it is a good pattern.

It appears there are several round potholder examples shown on the web and even some You Tube but most of them are not really complete.

• Here is a comment from a past posting on ThriftyFun:

• Use 100% cotton yarn (or the yarn will melt when it gets hot). Also: You may need to use 2 strands of yarn. You'll need to use the larger "knitter". ... Then, Knit it. When you've got it to the right size, flatten it (as if you were making a scarf) and with the same cotton yarn, bind the edges together, then add a loop to the top to hang it from. I always make my Hot-Pads double thickness anyway to prevent being burned.
• I believe the link below has some pretty clear instructions and at the bottom of the page there is a link to a video.
