Take the lid right off.
It’s not often you meet a potholder pretty enough to put on parade. Well, until now. In dreamy grid and stripe-happy patterns, these come in a color for any and every kitchen situation (or just outta the oven pie-grabbing scenario). They’re 100% cotton with a durable filling, all made by hand at a family run co-op in Chiapas, Mexico. Use that clever attached loop to hang it within easy reach.
