Which Skill Level Does This Project Suit Best?
The Basic Mittens for Adults Pattern is perfect for beginners, allowing you to make a practical and stylish accessory. The designer uses basic stitches only, like half double crochets, single crochets, and some shaping. The gloves feature a simple construction, which makes them a straightforward yet satisfying project.
Must-Have Supplies for a Smooth Start
For this project, you will need worsted-weight yarn and a 5.5 mm crochet hook. The designer used 2 balls of Ice Yarn Super Tweed to make a one sample pair, but any other medium-weight yarn that meets the gauge will be great too.
How This Pattern Is Constructed
The pattern guides you through the process of crocheting simple mittens for adults. You start from the wrist, shape the hand and thumb hole, then keep crocheting straight until the pinky is covered. After that, you decrease to close up the top. The ribbed cuff is added last for a snug and comfy finish.
Can I Size These Mittens for Men or Women?
The crochet mittens can be made for both men and women. With three adult sizes available, you can create an accessory that fits different hand sizes. You can also use our Crochet Mitten & Glove Sizing Chart to determine your best size.
