Crochet a Pair of Basketweave Fingerless Gloves or Mittens

Basketweave Mitts Crochet Pattern Download

Basketweave Mitts

Here is an idea to start making this year as gifts. These wonderful gloves or mitts have a unique design to crochet plus they can easily be made in your favorite yarn colors. The pattern suggests using wool yarn but any yarn that works well for mittens or gloves will be okay to use.

Generous double-treble post stitches create an airy yet warm woven fabric. Careful seaming along the thumb side connects the cables. Extend the wearing by flipping them inside out for a completely different look.
