Square white potholder with yellow trim and accents. The potholder and trim are crocheted and thirteen yellow flowers have been embroidered on the surface, one flower in each corner and nine in a square at the center. A small ring was added at one corner so that the potholder can hang.
Measures approximately 6 1/4" square and is in good condition with the exception of the plastic ring which is broken.
Accompanied by a note in poor condition that reads, "Pot Holders & Dish Cloth crocheted by Mrs. Stephen Watsey." (See item 2021.011.138.)Acquisition
