Crochet Hamburger HotPad

I’ve been craving hamburgers and cheeseburgers! Probably because I’m back on Weight Watchers (see my weight loss journey HERE). I’m trying to shed a few pounds for the summer season. Fortunately these cuties are zero caloreis! These crochet hamburgers can be used as hotpads (probably not the one with the safety eyes), or a toddler bib, applique, panel for a backpack, little pillow, part of a hat, or stitch two together to make a little cuddle buddy! The possibilities are endless!

Finished size is approximately 8 inches x 8 inches

Materials:
Bernat Super Value Yarn in Mushroom Brown, Lush Green, Taupe Dark Brown, Bright Yellow, Berry, and a little bit of Black for the embellishments.

– Size H Crochet Hook
– 9mm Black Safety Eyes (optional)

Attach brown yarn along edge and SC along the sides of both top and bottom buns. This gives it a nice smooth edge! Leave the middle parts as is.

If making into a hotpad/Potholder attach yarn to the top, chain 10, and slip stitch to join back to the top edge.

Don’t forget to add facial features!

Do you think I should make a series?! I think the hamburger needs two buddies: pizza and french fries!
