Textured Tunisian Mitts

These delicate fingerless gloves are worked with two strands of laceweight yarn held together.

The body of the mitts are worked in a textured Tunisian Crochet Honeycomb stitch, and the thumb is worked in the contrasting Tunisian Knit Stitch.

The Mitts are worked flat and then joined together with a flat crochet slip stitch seam.

MATERIALS: 4.5mm Tunisian Crochet Hook, 3.5mm Crochet Hook, Approximately 130 yards each of 2 laceweight yarns in A and B

This pattern requires 2 strands of Laceweight yarn to be held together. One yarn will need one to be a smooth texture such as Alpaca, and the other will need to be a fluffy texture such as a Mohair, to create a cosy texture.

The yarns don’t have to be the same colour, they can be 2 different colours, as when they are held together, they will create a new colour. See the examples in the photos which show the different yarn combinations I have used to create 3 different results, all using the same yarn for Yarn A.
