Stash-Buster #14 - V-day Potholder III

Happy Valentines Day!!!

A variation on the potholder from this post and this post.
Changed to a sc with a picot edge. 
I do not know why my sc rounds turn hexagon, any ideas on how to make this round?
Oh, well I'm going with it, for now.
(BTW, a sc round starts with 6 and increases by 6 each round, but don't listen to me,
I don't even know how to get it round!)
This is for my sweet mother-in-law.
It's matches her dishcloths from this post:
The potholder is likely made from the leftover yarn from this project.
Gosh, this stash-busting feels good!

Hey, get this:
Stash-buster 14 on the 14th.
It was meant to be!

Have a LOVE-ly day!

    Fine duse fargar:)
    Dersom du aukar på same plassen i kvar runde, vert vel forma slik? Du får søke på nettet og finne ein tutorial;)

    Another terrific stashbuster! Beautiful as always. I have the same problem when I sc a circle; it looks like a hexagon until it gets bigger. I'm not sure how to correct the problem on a small scale. Sorry; I guess that didn't help much! But at least you know you're not alone :-)

    I try to make a hexagon and don't get it right and you do it without even trying. Ha! It has to be because of where you are putting the increase or something. I notice some of my projects get that look, too, but then with additional increases they tend to go round again. You are really going to town with the stash busting. Love the fabric and crochet together. Best wishes for a fabulous Friday. Tammy

    Very taken with these potholders - they look gorgeous. Am I right in thinking you crochet two identical circles and stitch or crochet them together when you make the edging? I love the reversible aspect - so pretty and so practical. E x
