MITTENS DIRECTIONS

These mittens are easy to make.
The pattern uses only basic crochet stitches - double and simple crochets.

The pattern was made with:
Palma Fibre Freedom – 75 % baby alpaca, 25% polyamide, 50g/120m – 1.5 skein
and Red Heart Bella or any other white yarn.

Crochet hooks: 3.5mm and 5mm.

Difficulty Level: Level 1 – Easy, for beginners

US crochet term:
SlSt – slip stitch
CH/s – chain/s
SC – single crochet
DC - double crochet
T - turn
ST/s - stitch(es)
REP - repeat

Special stitches used:
FPDC = front post double crochet
BPDC = back post double crochet
SC2TOG = single 2 together

Front and back post crochet stitches are used to create wonderful texture in crochet. Instead of making your stitch through the loops at the top of the stitch, you make it around the stitch. Everything else stays the same. The most challenging things about crochet post stitches are knowing where and how to insert the hook. There are front post stitches and back post stitches.

For front post double crochet stitches (fpdc): yarn over, insert your hook from front to back then from back to front around post of stitch indicated, yarn over, pull through stitch, then finish your double crochet as normal, yarn over, pull through 2 lps, yarn over, pull through last 2 lps

For back post double crochet stitches (bpdc): yarn over, you insert your hook from back to front then from front to back around post stitch indicated, yarn over, pull through stitch, then finish your double crochet as normal, yarn over, pull through 2 lps, yarn over, pull through last 2 lps

SC2TOG instructions: The TOG crochet abbreviation is simply shorthand for “together,” while the beginning determines the type of stitch. In this case, SC2 stands for “single crochet two.”

How to decrease with sc2tog: Insert hook in next stitch, yarn over and pull yarn through loop (2 loops on hook). Insert hook in next stitch, yarn over and pull yarn through loop (3 loops on hook), yarn over and pull yarn through all 3 loops on hook

Pattern Notes

1) A ch3 at beg of the row counts as dc throughout.
2) The project is crocheted in rounds. Rounds are finished with sl st.
3) Below, there is a pattern for women size "M" mittens. You can always adjust this pattern by making the starting chain longer or shorter.
