If you win this prize, you get 5 Dischloth Trivets, each one in the colours of a different shift (including Omega), and 1 Tea Towel Placemat with an alternate Omega Colour scheme and stripes. Each of the trivets are about 6" (~15cm) across, and the tea towel is ~12"x16"*** Each item is crocheted using cotton yarn (intended for use such as dishcloths/tea towels) and patterns I've developed myself. The trivets are suitable as a dishcloth, pot trivet, or decoration, and the tea towel can double as a placemat.
Warning: I would not recommend replacing your oven mitts with these.
Care Instructions: machine washable, in a garment bag if you wish.

I'm just a crafter that exists on the internet a lot of the time. I do a lot of fiber crafts in my free time when I'm not working on a lego build or VST things. I used to sell these kinds of crafts at conventions in the GTHA (Hamilton/Toronto, ON area) after learning how to knit/needlepoint/crochet from my grandmas and friends.
