Luego de publicar la foto de este Molino para mi cocina, en un foro que participo, gusto mucho y fueron muchas las personas que mostraron interes en realizarlo, tan es asi, que le pedi autorizacion a mi amiga Mary y muy gentilmente me lo permitio, es por ello que escribi las instrucciones en ingles que podran acompañar con el Paso a Paso de Mary, espero que les sea de utilidad y que lo hagan. Un beso grande para Mary.

Now work each petal this way:
Row 1: Fill petal * 3 ch count as first dc, 13 dc, 3 ch, 14 dc* repeat from * for each petal. You should have 7 petals, 14 sets of 14 dc and 7 ch 5 sps
Row 2: *14 dc (3 ch counts as first dc) each dc in 14 dc’s of previous row, in 3 ch space 3 dc, 3 ch, 3dc, 14 dc in 14 dc’s of previous row * repeat from * for each petal . You should have in each petal 17 dc, 3 ch, 17 dc.

Do the filet row,* 3ch count as first dc, 2ch, 1 dc, skip 1 dc* of previous row repeat from * around..
Start the filet row in the top of any point.
See the

Note: With filet you join the points and form the pinwheel, please see the pic.
EDGING:
In each stitch of filet: * sc, picot ( 3 ch, slip st in last sc), sc * repeat from * around.
THE RING:
You can buy a plastic ring and fill in it with sc or you can do it with thread this way:
Wrap your thread around your fingers, 6 times. Pull it of carefully leaving a hole in the center, this is where you will crochet with sc around. I can not say the number of sc, depends the size of the ring.
Sew the ring to the potholder in any petal.
Join weave in all threads and block
And
That’s it, It’s ready your Pinwheel Potholder!
