Glittens: Convertible Gloves/Mittens

Sizing (at widest part of palm, when laid flat): • Tiny: 3 ½ inches – see page 7 • Small: 3 ¾ inches – see page 8 • Medium: 4 inches – see page 9 • Large: 4 ¼ inches – see page 10 Description: This pattern begins with the cuffs, using an elastic double crochet alternating between front post and back post. The remainder of the work is done with a ribbed stitch, using a single crochet through the third loop. First the palm and thumb are stitched and tied off. Then the palm continues, and four fingers are attached and tied off. Finally the mitts are stitched into the back of the hand and chained around the fingers. The thumbs and mitts are sewn closed, while the fingers remain open. As the Tiny child size is shorter than the Small/Medium/Large adult sizes, a few of the rows will be skipped; make note of rows marked as “S/M/L only” to skip for size T. After the written pattern, charts are included to indicate number of stitches per round up from Row 0. For instance, in row 20 of size Tiny, there are 4 fingers of 11 stitches round, thumb of 12 stitches round, and mitt of 28 stitches round.
