Crochet Velvet Baby Mittens Pattern
Happy New Years Friends! Over the holidays, my 17 months old daughter and I were visiting family in Canada. It was cold and baby girl needed some mittens! Luckily, I packed some velvet yarn and designed these simple but very cute Velvet Baby Mittens for her!
The Velvet Baby Mittens crochet pattern take less than 20 minutes to make and use minimal supplies! I used Bernat Baby Velvet but you can substitute for any other medium (4) weight yarn as long as you are able to reach gauge for accurate sizing. The pattern includes instructions for 3 sizes: Small (0-6 months), Medium (6-12 months), and Large (12-18 months).
Want the ad-free, easy to print version? You can find this pattern (and many more patterns) on Etsy and Ravelry!
