Simple Steps Fingerless Mitts
"Continue your crochet journey with the Simple Steps Fingerless Gloves! Designed as the perfect third project in our “Simple Steps” series, these mitts allow you to practice and combine the foundational stitches you learned in the Scarf and Ear Warmer patterns while introducing the exciting new challenge of the thumb opening. This pattern will guide you through creating a stylish and cozy pair of mitts that are perfect for gifting or keeping your hands warm while allowing your fingers to stay free for texting or working. The included YouTube tutorial link will take you through each step of crochet and construction. ✨ Why Choose This Pattern?
