Snuggle Handle Holder

This tight fitting handle holder is just perfect for any cast iron skillet! It fits like a glove! I do recommend you use cotton for this pattern for extra protection. Do not substitute acrylic for this pattern. I also recommend that you do not leave this on the handle while the burner is lit. (especially a gas stove) It could catch fire. Only put it on when you are actually going to pick up the pan.
