Rhomboid Clustered Hot Pad

Rhomboid Clustered Hot Pad

A free crochet pattern for a rhomboid clustered hot pad. The clusters of the pattern help to give the hot pad extra cushioning in order to protect the surface from the heat. Although the pattern is worked in straight rows, the finished project results in a rhomboid or diamond shape. If you don’t like the diamond shape, you can simply block it to a square.

The pattern is easy to do after the basic crochet skills have been mastered. The only difficulties for the beginner would be the clusters and the reverse single crochet stitch. The reverse stitch is made similarly the same way that a regular single crochet stitch is made, only it is worked from left to right instead of from right to left. Click here for a tutorial on how to make the reverse single crochet stitch.
