“Some days thumbless toddler mittens are a super time saver.” Wouldn’t you agree?

My Hill Crest Mittens feature instructions for thumbless mittens size 6 months to 2 years. These DIY toddler mittens are really quick to make with the majority of stitching consisting of easy, standard single crochet. Matching sizes for Hill Crest Child and Hill Crest Adult make simple and classic crochet mittens for the entire family.

And, if you need a pattern to make a winter wear accessory set, check out the free instructions for a matching winter hat. The matching Hill Crest Hat and Mitten Set makes a cute set perfect for everyday wear and gift-giving.

The free pattern is provided below including the size, materials, and notes. An ad-free PDF version of the Hill Crest Mitten Pattern is also available for you to purchase, download, and print out.

Pattern information below!

Pattern Notes

♥ Please take time to create a gauge sample before beginning work.

♥ These mittens are worked in a continuous spiral and will create a diagonal pattern. Do not join rounds unless indicated.

♥ Use hook size I/9 (5.5mm) for teen adult small mitten.

♥ The final round at the cuff is worked into the posts of the previous round and creates the appearance of rolling. This is an intended part of the design.

♥ A small length of contrasting yarn may be used in place of a stitch marker. Weave the yarn upwards as you work rounds in the piece. See picture on page 10.

♥ The yarn used for these mittens contains natural fiber and requires special laundering. Please read yarn labels and follow directions to maintain the life of your crochet work.
