PAPATYA ROVING: Wool 20 % + Acrylic 80 %, 100m/100g – 1 skein

1 ball is perfect for 1 pair of Adult Women Wrist Warmers
For this pattern you will need 7,0 mm and 5.5. mm crochet hook.
Scissors and tapestry needle and I would recommend you to use a tape measure.

SC - single crochet
HDC - half double crochet
SK - skip
T - turn
ST/s - stitch(es)
REP - repeat
YO – yarn over
Special stitches used:
BLO = BACK LOOP ONLY
HDC2TOG instructions: The TOG crochet abbreviation is simply shorthand for “together,” while the beginning determines the type of stitch. In this case, HDC2 stands for “half double crochet two.”
How to decrease with hdc2tog: Yarn over, insert hook in next stitch on your row, yarn over and pull yarn through the stitch on your hook (3 loops on hook). Yarn over, insert hook in next stitch, yarn over and pull yarn through the stitch on your hook (4 loops on hook), yarn over and pull yarn through all loops on hook.
CROCHET WARM and COSY MITTENS PATTERN NOTES
SIZE
The pattern is easy to adjust to fit different Mittens sizes from kids to Adult sizes
Bellow there is a pattern for Adult woman size "S/M" and they fits perfectly to me and also my teenage daughter.
1) The crochet MITTENS can easily be adapted to a smaller size or bigger size just by reducing or increasing the numbers of stitches and as well as less or more numbers of rows. Remember that when making bigger beanie size, you will need more yarn.
I’ll show you how to make sizes that really fit.
2) These Mittens are crocheted in rounds, using half double crochet stitches, rounds are finished with sl st. And are also crocheted in rows, back and forth, slip stitches working in back loops only.
3) A ch1 at beg of the row doesn’t count as a stitch throughout.
4) To finish the Mittens, you’ll join together the top.
*Measurements are taken from the garment lying flat, before the yarn has stretched out/dropped.
