Be sure that your thumbhole is on the same side of mitten as index finger hole. It will be roughly the 2-3 stitches before the РІР‚Сљsplit for thumbholeРІР‚Сњ on the back side of the round. For the left hand you will need to match the placement based on your gauge and yarn weight. For the right hand, you can use the first 2-3 stitches of the round. The horizontal placement of the access holes can also be based on personal preference, but you will need to place the holes on opposite sides of the mittens to accommodate for right and left hand. 6.5РІР‚Сњ is a good time to add the index finger and approx. The vertical placement of the access holes can be based on personal preference, however, I found that for adult size, when the mittens reach approx. So if you prefer the coverage of mittens, but still would like to access your touch screens you can add some small slits to your mittens for your index finger and thumb.Р’В IРІР‚в„ўve decided to leave the instructions somewhat open-ended since this pattern is written in two weights and has two different sets of stitch counts. If youРІР‚в„ўre brand new to tapestry crochet, hereРІР‚в„ўs a great tutorial video on tapestry crochet from Whistle & Ivy.Р”Р„s I was finishing up this pattern, I thought it would be fun to add some little holes for your fingers. ThereРІР‚в„ўs a few times that we will chain and skip a few stitches, so be sure to pay attention to the color of the next stitch that youРІР‚в„ўre working when this happens. Each square represents a stitch as the square colors change so should your stitches. We will be working in the round for this project, so at the beginning of every round we will start the graph over at Column 1 of the next row. That means while we are crocheting with one color, we will hold the unused color or colors along the base of the row and wrap the stitches around the unused yarn. For this project we will be carrying our yarn. There are several different approaches to color work in crochet. If youРІР‚в„ўre brand new to waistcoat stitch, check out this video tutorial from Make & Do Crew. Going up a hook size or two is always a great option to help loosen up your tension.

If youРІР‚в„ўre tension is too tight, youРІР‚в„ўll have a hard time getting your hook into the stitch. Since youРІР‚в„ўre working between the posts, its important to keep your tension loose. This creates a knit-look effect with the stitches. The main different is that instead of working under the loops of the stitch below, you will work between the posts. Waistcoat stitch is a variation of single crochet. And IРІР‚в„ўll also link you to some great tutorial videos to help you get started. IРІР‚в„ўll give you a quick breakdown of each in case youРІР‚в„ўre new to these techniques.

My testers used a variety of different worsted weight yarn brands, so I donРІР‚в„ўt think youРІР‚в„ўll have too much trouble finding a yarn to match gauge.Р”Р‡or this project, we will be using tapestry crochet and the waistcoat stitch. This is one of my go-to yarns for projects like this as itРІР‚в„ўs pretty budget friendly and comes in so many colors. If you opt not to use three colors, I recommend substituting the accent color for the main color.Р”Р‡or the worsted version, I used Brava Worsted yarn from WeCrochet. Since I did these in tri-color, I also added a bit of Brava Bulky from WeCrochet as my accent color. I wanted these to be able to be worn with either the Luxe Leopard Beanie in Bulky or the Luxe Leopard Beanie in Worsted so I included stitch counts for both yarn weights.Р”Р‡or the bulky version, I used Lion Brand Color Made Easy as my main color and contrasting color. This pattern can be made with either bulky (5) or worsted weight (4) yarn.

I worked in some little escape hatches for your fingers if youРІР‚в„ўd like to make the full mittens but also like to play with your phone. This modification is also pretty simple to adjust to fit your hands. I also had a few testers try their hand with a fingerless version. I designed these mittens in adult size, but since itРІР‚в„ўs single crochet theyРІР‚в„ўre pretty easy to adjust to fit your needs.
