Yeah -I made it to be a hot pad- its actually thicker than the hot pads I am recovering.

| Question. What can you put in a hot pad to insulate it? I burn myself a lot. |

I've heard there is a heat resistant batting- coated with something I guess.
These are just recoverd ones that I purchased and wore slap-out!!
The dishcloths were so thick that they seem to be perfectly insulating- I would use a heavy outer fabric just in case. Also if there are holes or thin spots repair them before recovering.

| Thanks! I love the idea of recycling worn-out dishcloths. I have several I could cover, and it would be a fun excuse to crochet some new ones. |

You could also use old coat linings to insulate hot pads.
I quilt so I have a lot of fabric and I always take the selvege edge off the fabric, right? Well, I roll it up into balls and I crochet dish clothes out of it, wears like iron.
