I love crocheted crocodile stitch mittens and I thought there must be the way to knit them. It took some time and… here they are. This pattern is intended for upper intermediate knitters. It requires working in rounds, short rows and a little bit of cables. The mittens are made bottom-up in rounds without any sewing. Pattern contains row-by-row description.

Many thanks to Lumberjill for testing!!!
