Crochet Kitchen Towel Holder

Kitchen Towel Holder By It’s Just A Yarn Thing 

 

Materials:
Cotton yarn, I used I Love This Cotton 
Hook Size US G
Large button
3” metal ring (I found mine at Hobby Lobby)
Scissors
Stitch marker if desired
Large needle for weaving in the ends
Size:  An average kitchen towel will fit through the ring. 
Gauge is not important for this project however, you may need to adjust the top of the holder to fit the handle you choose to hang it from. This is easily done by increasing the number of rows after row11.
