These mitts, a.k.a. wrist warmer or fingerless gloves have a slightly Victorian flavor. They are worked from the wrist toward the fingers, back and forth in rows. Then, without breaking yarn, the flat piece is seamed with a slip stitch.
This pattern is meant for the Intermediate Crocheter who has mastered the following stitches: single crochet, double crochet, half double crochet, front post double crochet and slip stitch.
