I made a cheery, checker two, yellow and white patterned potholder. To make it, use the following colors for the columns:

yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow,yellow

Next weave in these colors for the rows:

white,yellow,white,white,yellow,white,white,yellow,white,white,yellow,white,white,yellow,white,white,yellow,white,white,yellow,white

Start off by weaving the first row color of white underneath, then over the column loops.
Weave the second row color of yellow over, then underneath the column loops.

To make this using different colors, substitute your first color wherever yellow appears, substitute your second color wherever white appears.

Tie off the ends, starting at the top left corner. The hanging loop will end up being the 2nd loop at the top left corner.
See my Loom Potholder Tutorial for further details on weaving the ends together.
