The more things change, the more they remain... insane (Michael Fry and T. Lewis)

My favorite thing this week are the old wool-loop potholders. The ones that kids make on the little square looms; you've probably made a couple of them yourself as a child. I remember making hundreds of them growing up. And then helping my kids make them. Now I'm helping my client make them.

Besides the benefit of being a fun, easy craft project, these are really good potholders. They're the perfect weight and size to use; they last forever, almost; they clean up easily in the washing machine; and they can be made in almost any color scheme so they go with everyone's kitchen.
