Children's Crocheted Mittens by Sue Norrad

Children's Crocheted Mittens

This pattern is available for free.

These mittens can be made in a variety of sizes simply by changing hooks and yarns. It is an easy pattern which makes really nice mittens.

MATERIALS: 2 - 1.4 oz (or 40 g) balls of 3 ply worsted weight yarn. I used Phentex Vogue, color Pirates Gold. Hook - 4.00mm/G-6
Darning needle

SIZE: These instructions are for small - children age 2 to 4.

Suggestions:
For a medium size (children age 5 to 7), use 4 ply worsted weight yarn and a 4.00mm / G-6 hook.
For a large size (children age 8 to 10), use 4 ply worsted weight yarn and a 4.50mm hook.
For children ages 10+ try the Adult Pattern with a 4 ply worsted weight yarn and a 3.75mm / F-5 or 4.00mm / G-6 hook.
For extra small (9 to 24 mos), use 3 ply worsted weight yarn and a 3.00mm hook.

To be sure the mitten will fit before you complete the whole pattern, do the cuff first only. Try it around the child’s wrist. If it fits, the rest of the pattern will be fine.
