Free crochet mitten pattern for beginners. If you have been searching YouTube for an easy knit pattern? Then you have come to the right place. I will teach you how to crochet mitten step by step. The crochet mittens are very similar to the slipper pattern we created a few weeks ago. We will be using the Front post double crochet throughout this pattern. This stitch gives the mitten a much thicker feel while only using worsted weight yarn. I give pattern adjustment for all adult sizes.
