Decorate your tree with this cute crochet mini christmas mitten this year! It is an easy and super quick pattern thanks to chenille yarn!
I have been getting into the festive spirit with this cute mini crochet mitten! I love this project!
The mittens work up super quick. This is due to the fact that the chenille yarn I used is bulky and therefore you only need a few stitches and rounds to work up a mitten.
I started at the fingertips and worked all the way down towards the cuff. There is no need to complicate things with a thumb opening.
This is because they are not actual functional mittens, so you do not need to create a hole for the thumb.
The thumb is simply worked onto the side of the mitten after it is finished! It is as easy as that!
