I love a good pair of cozy mittens! Shortly after designing my Velvet Headband Crochet Pattern I realized that I would love a good velvet mitten crochet pattern to match!
Bernat Crushed Velvet:
Using the Bernat Crushed Velvet Yarn by Yarnspirations, this velvet mitten crochet pattern is available below in three sizes: small, medium and large. The exact measurements can be found below in the pattern.
This post contains affiliate links. This means that I will earn a small commission from each sale made through the link with no additional cost to you. Thank you so much for supporting Rich Textures Crochet!
Mitten Construction:
I have worked the pattern using two different colours, however you will only need a small amount of yarn in your colour B as you will only work a few rounds with it in the cuff.
To make the mittens coordinate with the my Velvet Headband, I added a single round of the bobble stitches. The rest of the mitten is worked in half double crochet stitches. For this reason the pattern works up quickly and is fairly easy to catch onto. Should you run into trouble though, don’t hesitate to check out the YouTube video tutorial below (And don’t forget to subscribe).
