Marble Mittens Three Ways

A cosy winter wardrobe staple - moss stitch crochet mittens made with double knit yarn, in five sizes. Choose from fingerless mittens, full mittens or flip-top, with open, extended, or closed thumb options. You can also alter the wrist section to really ensure that your mitts do, fit like a glove (pun intended). Instructions are included for left-handed crocheters and the pattern is available in US terms too.

They’re a quick make too and most sizes only need 100g/225m of DK, so with the weather looking to stay this cold for the next few weeks, why not snuggle down this weekend and whizz yourself up a pair or two!
