I hooked up 5 Crochet Dish Pan Pin Wheel’s while I was away camping. My birthmom has a trailer we head out to every summer, it’s so much fun to get away from the city and unwind for a week but not without a bag of yarn!!Two days before we would be heading home I noticed that there was paper towels being used between the non-stick pans so I asked if she would like me to work something up that she could use between the pans. She asked if I would make some for her home instead but I agreed to work up some for both the trailer and her home.

The trailer has a neon rainbow theme and I had the perfect yarn in my bag, some Red Heart Super Saver Day Glow. This colour looks awesome with black yarn but I didn’t have enough so I made the second one with white. The three Crochet Dish Pan Pin Wheels I made for her house were made using white and grape fizz.

I had the pattern tested and my tester mentioned that this pattern would look awesome in a rainbow of colours, no need to stick to just two colours, the possibilities are endless especially if you have a stash of yarn scraps!! I’d love to see what colours you hook up.
