Gentle Christian Mothers Community - View Single Post - good potholders that work and last?

I need new potholders. Old ones wearing either thin overall or thin spots. It seems most potholders dont' work as well once they are washed. I prefer mitts. Not sure why lately I seem to have a fear of getting burned. Not sure if it's just happened to often (nothing too serious but still- ouch!) or I'm having some irrational fear. Even at the stove I'm more afraid something is going to spatter me. It's like I'm more sensitive or something.

anyway- I need to buy new potholders and wondering if anyone can recommend a certain kind or brand or something that works really well (to lift a heavy cast iron dutch oven out of a 450 degree oven) is not clumsy, covers the hand, and either doesn't need to be washed in machine (like cloth) or holds up to washing.
