I created this hot pad yesterday. I was trying to come up with something extra to give mom for Mother's Day. While searching the web, I came across the "Roll Stitch" on Annie's Attic (http://www.anniesattic.com/). I thought that stitch would make a great hot pad so I set out to make it like the coaster pattern shown that day. I start the pattern using the first 3 rounds of the coaster, all the rest are my creation. (The free pattern on Annie's Attic is only available for one day so I have no way to link to the actual pattern).

Oh that turned out just beautiful. I need to try the roll stitch. Thanks so much for sharing
Thank You for the kind comment! I love the way the roll stitch adds depth. You may want to start with 4 yarn overs for your first time trying the roll stitch.
I love this pattern!! Beautiful!!
I havea question though on looking at the instructions--for the back are you doing only sc the entire way around to make this as big as the front?
How do you recommend attaching them together?
Thanks--and I love this!! I'm in the process of teaching my oldest daughter (27) to crochet, and I can't wait to show her this!!

This looks great and not too frilly. I will make it as part of my Sister's birthday present. Thank you for sharing!
Oh, I LOVE this! I am making a crocheted box with handles(large enough to hold about 6 rolled bath towels) and filling it with bath and kitchen items I have crocheted for my daughter. She is moving away with her new husband and setting up house. She will love the potholder/trivets I make in her colors from your pattern! Thank you so much!
Sorry I am signing anonymous, I don't know how to do all these fancy things on the computer, but I can hold my own at crochet ~
Having not worked for 2 years the money is tight & this will make a beautiful Mothers Day gift. I even have enough time to make a couple for my mom. Thank you for sharing this beautiful pattern.
What happened to the comments on the roll stitch? I am so intrigued and looked down and all the comments skewed to a million diferent topics! Darn, well I need to find an instruction for the roll stitch, I really love this reminds me of one my grandmother used to have when I was young!
*Roll Stitch (rst4): YO 4 times, insert hook in st indicated, draw up lp, YO and draw through alllps on hook, ch 1 -- roll st made.
Thank you for posting. I love the bouillon stitch. I will try this as my first boullion stitch project.Thanks again
On the roll stitch 10, most I can pull trough is about 4 at a time. Is there a trick other than loosely wrapping?
The next time I learn a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I mean, I know it was my option to learn, however I truly thought youd have one thing interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you possibly can repair for those who werent too busy looking for attention. online casinos for us players
