This pattern is for crochet fingerless mittens. It assumes knowledge of front post and back post stitches. I used a 4.5mm hook but you may need a smaller one to achieve the same tension/gauge.

There is another version on my blog written in an abbreviated form.

It is given for rainbow stripes but could be adapted to a single colour if wanted.

It could be sized up for bigger hands by adding a suitable even number of stitches.

I used acrylic yarn but any yarn could be used.

A pair of mittens uses something more than 30m of each colour.
