I have seen some cute crochet baby mitts lately, and wanted to make some for a new baby ~ but I worry that tiny fingers might get caught in open crochet stitches. I wanted the mitts to look pretty but to be practical too. So I designed a pattern in half treble crochet which gives a denser fabric.

ReplyDeleteThese are lovely, I've been looking for little things I can make up with leftover DK yarn. Can't wait to try them. Thanks for the pattern :-)
ReplyDeletethese are wonderful! The pattern was super easy to follow and they turned out really cute! I lined the inside with fleece to help withstand the cold Canadian winter and now they're perfect!
ReplyDeleteIn row 11: should I be putting a 1tc in each chain also? Seems like it's starting to ruffle. Thanks for the pattern! I am so happy with the way it's turned out!
