Our next striped mittens are undoubtedly a great way to use up yarn ends. However, if you work them into stripes, they look like amazing designer color sets.

Mixed Stripe Mittens Crochet Pattern
Introducing the perfect striped mittens. I brought these striped mittens along on the trip with me and thank goodness I did. They were perfect for outdoor adventures in the snow. They're made out of an acrylic wool blend, so they're soft but really durable. Just what I need for playing around in the snow. Not only are these gloves practical, but they're cute too. The base of the mittens is gray with pink tips at the top. Then, there's a little white stripe under the pink, with a bit of gray separating the colors. It's a really basic design because they're worked in single crochet all over. So if you're going on a trip soon, you can work these up just in time.
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.
