Cast Iron Handle Cover

Posted on September 9, 2018

After 5 years my old cast iron skillet’s handle cover was worn out. The top edge was scorched and the stitching was frayed. So it was time for a new handle cover. I got a ball of t-shirt yarn and crocheted this new handle cover.

I crochet my cast iron handle covers using this free crochet pattern and t-shirt yarn. I cut my t-shirts in thin long continuous strips and then pull on it to make what I call curled t-shirt yarn or tarn. Here is a picture tutorial showing how I make yarn from t-shirts.

I love recycling old t-shirts into new useful things such as these pan handle covers. I hope you will try this recycled project or one of my other t-shirt pattern ideas.
