'Earn Your Stripes' Crochet Mitts

I recommend lovely full double knit in pure wool for these hand warmers, but they are also a great way to use up whatever scraps are in your stash.

I love stripes, and I also love the chevrons that seem to be everywhere.

These practical and cheery mitts would make a great present, and a fun thing to make over the holidays.

They have been tried and tested many times, but do let me know if you encounter any problems.

The pattern includes charts as a reference, but you will probably need to also refer to the written instructions.
