Ok, here is the picture of the completed item. This was my first real attempt at shadow knitting. Much easier than I expected, but it does take some thought when charting out the pattern. I've been using mine as a large coaster, but it really is meant to go on my counter whenever I have something from the oven that needs to cool down. This will come in handy for Thanksgiving dinner this year because I always seem to run out of potholders/dishtowels to set my hot dishes on. If you made this as well, I hope you had fun knitting and like the end result. I will have a new mystery project around the middle of December, so be sure to check back!
Pattern for the Heart Shadow Hot Pad is below the picture.

Episode 6: Cool!
I've named this episode of the podcast "Cool" because I used the word cool waaay too many times! I apologize in advance :0) As always I have some magazine reviews, plus I talk about a few yarns I recently got, a strange yet amusing knitting video, Vanna's Choice Yarn Contest, and we will be wrapping up the very first Mystery Knitting Project!
