This is a nice, double-thick potholder, not too big, not too small, and with a convenient hanging loop so it can be ready to use at a moment's notice for grabbing a hot pan or cookie sheet. It's about 7" by 6.5" with a diagonal measurement of 10" including the hanging loop. It's made of cotton yarn, so it's machine wash and dryable. It was made in a home with cats, which is probably good to know.
