Easy-On Mitts

For those of you who are unfamiliar with my Easy-On Mittens, these mittens have a wrist closure option which allows you to open and close the mitten at the wrist. I first designed these mittens for my son because he was so wiggly and I swear he had fingers sticking out all over the place - trying to get mittens on his hands was such a challenge and he always pulled them off as fast as I could get them on. These mittens open at the wrist so you can easily pop the hand into the mitten itself (not getting stuck on the narrower cuff part) and once the hand is inside you can button up the wrist closure and the hand stays inside the mitten ;) You can wear the closure on the underside of your wrist (which is how I did Drew's so he wouldn't try to undo the buttons) or on top - which is how Darla liked to wear hers because she thought they looked ‘pretty’ that way. You can alternately whip stitch the cuff closed for a regular pair of mittens - this is totally up to you! These mittens have been requested for many reasons - one of which is for individuals in Nursing Homes. The wrist closure allows caregivers to slide the mittens onto the resident’s hands more easily (and less painfully) and then the wrist closure can be button to ensure the mitten stays in place once on.

Easy Warm Winter Mittens

You're going to love these Easy Warm Winter Mittens! They're such a great pair of mittens to keep your hands warm, as well as a fun crochet make. One thing that is important for me when it comes to crocheting mittens is that the stitches are quite tight. I feel like I achieved that with these, which means they'll keep you warm and toasty! The Easy Warm Winter Mittens is a beautiful crochet pattern for a pair of crocheted winter mittens. The stitch combination makes a beautiful result, and they'll keep your really warm and toasty. The pattern comes in 1 size and uses amazing warm wool yarn. Size customization included in the pattern.

Houndstooth Mittens

I love that the classic houndstooth pattern is making a comeback again. I originally made a sample in aran and turqouise, but I just couldn't resist making a pair of Houndstooth Mittens in a more classic color combination. Yarn I chose Patons Classic Wool Worsted for my mittens, but you can substitute another worsted weight yarn as long as you're able to meet gauge. You'll need approximately 180 yards for your main color and 100 yards for a contrasting color. These Houndstooth Mittens are an A Crocheted Simplicity original design.
