Quick Warm Mittens

I like patterns that work up fast. These are made with 2 strands of worsted weight 
yarn. Fast to make and very warm for this time of year. Also looks great done in
the moss stitch pattern.


MATERIALS 

Yarn: 4 ply worsted weight. I used Mary Maxim Starlette Worsted Weight yarn. This pattern is worked with 2 strands of yarn held together. 
Hook: 7.00 mm

Gauge: 3 sc = 1 inch, 2 rows of sc = 1 inch

Size: Women's adult. My hands are small so for larger mittens, add more rows on the cuff (ending with an even number of rows), and more rounds on the mitten . I added instructions on where to add or subtract rounds for larger or smaller mittens.


Mitten measures about 4 inches across the back of hand. Mitten is 10 inches long, including the cuff, 7 inches excluding the cuff.

Crocheted Moss Stitch Mittens

I designed a new mittens pattern for adults. 


















These mittens use the moss stitch pattern. 

MATERIALS
Yarn: 4 ply worsted weight yarn. I used Red Heart Super Saver in Grape Fizz. a 141 g skein, and I had lots left over.
Hook: 4.50 mm. These fit me and my hands are quite small so if your hands are an average size you might want to use a 5.00 mm hook. However, the mittens are stretchy.
