Can the Country Cottage Mittens Be Made by Beginners?

It’s also okay if you’ve never done a mitten project before because there is a helpful video tutorial that walks you through each step.
Materials Needed for Warm Crochet Mittens
To make this beautiful pair, you will need medium-weight yarn and a 5 mm hook. The designer recommends using Hobby Lobby I Love This Yarn, a 100% acrylic yarn with a soft, warm feel. It’s available in a wide palette of colors, so you can easily find the shade that speaks to your heart.
Quick Construction Pattern Overview
You will work these crochet gloves in the round, starting from the top and finishing at the bottom. The pattern uses a creative mix of single crochets, double crochets, and front post double crochets to create the gorgeous texture seen in the photos.
The thumb is made separately and attached to the gap left when working up the body. You will also make long ribbed cuffs by doing single crochets in the back loops only, which you can then easily fold up for a stylish look.
