About the pattern

These Tunisian crochet fingerless mittens are made flat from the wrist up and seamed. The beautiful lace pattern on the back of the hand resembles rising vapors and the shaped thumb makes these mittens very comfortable to wear.

Any sock weight or size 2 yarn works for this pattern as long as you get gauge. Gauge is important to get well-fitting mittens, so make a gauge swatch before you start.

The pattern is offered in six adult sizes, so you can make fingerless mittens for your entire family.

Skill level
