feb 21: ikea skillet condoms
My cast iron skillets are awesome, but the handles get very hot. So I borrowed a page from my memories of growing up in the US South, and made up some skillet handle condoms.
These are made from an Ikea potholder that is just too big to be practical:
I cut one of them into four pieces, then sewed around the outside with my new-found sewing skill. Slipping them back on gives a rough, but functional effect:
Though it’s not 100% attractive, I think this counts for a “level up” in sewing ability. +1!
