Crochet Scottie Dog Potholder, Anne Cabot 5471

Crochet Scottie Dog Potholder:  This pattern gives directions to crochet the potholder pictured.  A fine dog who is both decorative and useful and who doesn't have to be taken out for a walk. That's our red and black cotton rug yarn Scottie!  He is 9 inches big from head to tail and is a prize-winner when it comes to picking up hot-handled pots and frying pans.  Make half-a-dozen "Scotties" of odds and ends of yarn - they make delightful presents. Your church bazzaar will be able to sell dozens of them.  

This is a Mail Order pattern purchased through newspapers and catalogs.  The pattern was marketed as Anne Cabot 5471 in 1942.  The pattern was included in the Anne Cabot 1943 Needlework Album (Spring/Summer).
