Hello Everyone!
It’s Friday once again nd I had a lot of people interested in my last mittens patterns but they weren’t exactly beginner friendly with some of the stitches used. So I figured it was time to make some beginner’s mittens for those who were a little overwhelmed by my last pattern.
These mittens will use only beginner friendly stitches, and if anyone needs extra help feel free to message me on my Facebook page. These look great in multicolored yarns since the stitch pattern is so simple it’s a great way to just show off those yarns you have in your stash. Alternatively the simple ribbing that half double crochet stitches naturally give make these a nice simple design to do in solid colors as well.
This pattern will be available on my Patreon by the end if the month as a PDF for my highest 2 tiers.
Let’s get hooking!

Beginner’s Mittens Crochet Pattern

Row 1- Start with a magic ring and work 8 HDC into it. If you don’t know how to do a magic ring you can ch 2 and work 8 HDC in the second ch from hook. I do suggest a magic ring however since the hole at the top will be tighter.
