Question
CatdaBrat
Hi, I was going to start crocheting a couple of hotpads for my table, but most of the patterns say do NOT use synthetic yarns or the yarn is likely to melt when you place a hot casserole dish on the hotpad. Makes sense, but more than 20 years ago, I made my mom a whole bunch of crocheted hotpads out of synthetic yarns and she has been using them ever since. None of them look scorched or melted. So are yarns nowadays really that much different? Has anyone actually had a hotpad melt? Thanks for any info.
