Discover the world of crochet fingerless mitts, a trendy and practical accessory that will keep your hands warm while allowing your fingers to remain free. These stylish mitts are perfect for those chilly days when you need a little extra warmth but still want the freedom to use your fingers for tasks like texting, typing, or even knitting. Crocheting your own fingerless mitts allows you to customize them to your liking, choosing the perfect yarn color and stitch pattern to match your personal style.

Finished mitts measure approximately 11" in length and 4" across at the widest part, so they're small adult or kid-sized.

Because I am a waif of a human. For larger mitts you can either use a larger hook size or add length or girth in the form of more rows or stitches.
