Crochet Fingerless Mitts Inspiration:
A few weeks ago, I received some happy mail in the form of another fun Hobbii Challenge. This time, we were asked to try out the Hobbii Upcycled Alpaca Blend yarn. At the end of last year, I had been toying with the idea of designing fingerless mitts but I couldn’t decide on what stitch combination to use. When I received this yarn, I just knew I had to make the fingerless mitts a reality! I loved working with this yarn, it was super soft and not scratchy like other varieties of wool yarns!
I used a combination of the Tunisian crochet crossed stitch and Tunisian crochet purl stitch to give some nice stitch definition and a ribbing effect. I am really happy with the way they turned out, I hope you love making them!
This pattern was showcased as part of the 2024 International Crochet Month Blog Hop! Marie from Underground Crafter has put together this blog hop featuring fun new patterns throughout the month.

Notes About Sizing for the Crochet Fingerless Mitts Pattern:
- Measure your gauge swatch across unstretched and stretched. Note the two numbers and subtract to find the difference. This is how much you will need to subtract from the hand circumference measurement to determine width for a tighter fit.
- Measure your hand circumference and length using the schematic below. Measure your hand circumference by wrapping your tape measure around your knuckles. Measure the length by measuring from your knuckles to 2 in. below your wrist.
- Calculate stitches per inch by dividing the number of stitches by inches of gauge swatch. For example: The gauge swatch measurement was 15 sts per 4 inches. 15 divided by 4 = 3.75 sts per inch.
- Use the measurements to calculate number of stitches to chain
- For a regular fit, example:
- For an 8 in. hand circumference, you will need to chain (8 in. x 3.75 sts) = 30 sts (for this pattern you will need a multiple of 6 + 2 so we will do 32 sts) for a total width of approximately 8 in.
- Calculate using the above method to find out how many stitches you need to chain. Substitute this number for X in the pattern below.
- For an 8 in. hand circumference, you will need to chain (8 in. x 3.75 sts) = 30 sts (for this pattern you will need a multiple of 6 + 2 so we will do 32 sts) for a total width of approximately 8 in.
- For a regular fit, example:
- For a tighter fit, example:
- The gauge swatch stretched is 5 in. and unstretched it is 4 in. 5 – 4 = 1 in. You will need to subtract 1 in. from the hand circumference measurement.
- 8 in. hand circumference – 1 in. = 7 in. This means you will need to chain (7 in. x 3.75 sts) = 26.25 sts (for this pattern you will need a multiple of 6 + 2 so we will do 24 sts + 2 = 26 sts) for a total width of approximately 7 in.
- Calculate using the above method to find out how many stitches you need to chain. Substitute this number for X in the pattern below.
- The gauge swatch stretched is 5 in. and unstretched it is 4 in. 5 – 4 = 1 in. You will need to subtract 1 in. from the hand circumference measurement.
- Measure from your knuckles to 2 in. below your wrist. This is the length you will need to complete. Substitute this number for Y in the pattern below.

Crochet Fingerless Mitts Pattern Instructions:
Ch X (based on my calculations and gauge, ch 32 for Women’s Large; ch 26 is suggested for Women’s Small and Medium for a regular fit)
Row 1 (Foundation Row): Pick up a loop in the back bump of each chain. Complete normal RetP. (X stitches)
Row 2: [(Sk st, tss, tss in skipped st) two times, tps 2], repeat [ ] to the end of the row, work last st as normal.
Repeat Row 2 until you reach the desired length as calculated above (Y) For the sample, I continued to 7.5 in. for a hand circumference of 8 in. based on my calculations and measurements.
Bind off and leave a 12 in. tail, cut yarn. With the wrong side facing out, fold in half as shown below. Leave a 1 in. hole for the thumb and attach locking stitch markers to signify beginning and end of thumb hole. Using the leftover tail, whip stitch along the edge leaving the thumb hole open.
Leaving a 6 in. tail, cut yarn. Weave in all loose ends and turn the finished mitt right side out. Repeat instructions for a second mitt.
