You can wear these mittens with the
closure on the underside of the wrist
or, on top of the wrist. My daughter
likes the buttons so she wears themfacing up. For Drew I put them facing
down so he doesnt try to open them.

Fold the cuff in half, so the 5th stitch of the first row is now located on the top right-hand corner.
Slip stitch to the 5th chain of row 1 (see Figure 2)
Continuing around the top of the cuff:
Round 1: sc around the top of the cuff (beginning in the stitch to the left of the ss) [17] (see Figure 1)
Round 2: 1 sc in blo, of each of the first 14sts, 1 sc in 3rd loop only of each of the last 3 sts [17]
Round 3: 1 sc in 3rd
loop only of the first 14 sts, 1 sc in both loops (normal crochet) of each of the last 3sts [17]
Round 4: (1 hdc in each of the first 3 sts, 2 hdc in the next st) 4x, 1 hdc in the next 1 st [21]
Round 5-7: hdc around [21]
Left Hand Round 8: 1 hdc in each of the first 5 sts, skip the next 4 sts, 1 ss and 1 hdc in the next st (10th
st), 1 hdc in each of the next 11 sts [18] (*ss counts as a stitch)
Right Hand Round 8: 1 hdc in each of the first 15 sts, skip the next 4 sts, 1 ss and 1 hdc in the next stitch
(20th
st), 1 hdc in the last st [18] (*ss counts as a stitch)

Round 14: (hdc2tog) 9 x [9] *I stitch this round tightly*
Round 15: hdc around [9]
Figure 2
After folding the cuff in half, this is
where the first stitch of row 1 will be
located. This is where you slip stitch
the cuff together.
Figure 1
This is where you will begin Round 1
of the actual mitten (your first SC).
You may wish to mark this stitch with
a stitch marker so you will remember
where to start each round.

and weave the ends of the yarn through both loops of the sc round; tighten firmly and weave in loose
ends
Thumb
With the thumb opening on the left-hand side of your work, join the yarn with a slip stitch, to the stitchjust to the left of the palm of the mitten (Figure 3).
Round 1: 1 hdc in the same st you ss to, hdc around [6 hdc + 1 ss]
Round 2: ss to the ss of round 1, 1 hdc in each st around (except the one you ss into) [6 hdc + 1 ss]

started in the same place)

Round 1: 12 hdc into the AL (find your button and make sure that it fits into the centre-hole created by
the 12 hdc in the AL you can tighten your loop but ensure you do not tighten it so much that your
button no longer fits through)
Row 2: chain 1, sc once into the 1st
hdc of Round 1, chain 1, turn [3]
Row 3-6: 1 sc in each of the 3 stitches you created in row 2, chain 1, turn [3]
Row 7: sc around the entire closure, ss to the beginning sc of the row (do not finish off)
Attachment of Closures:
Please see the diagram and photo below for assistance.
Place the closure above the valley row on the furthest edge of the cuff. Join the closure with a slip
stitch before single crocheting through the closure and around the post stitch of the valley row.
Crochet (sc) along the entire edge of the closure and then slip stitch into the cuff before cutting and
weaving in the ends of the yarn.
Next, attach your button. I also attach this in the valley area of the cuff.
MountainValley (where you
attach the closure)
I single crochet along
the posts of this row to
attach the closure.

For placement of the closure I sc
through the posts in the valley
between the mountains; this
allows the closure to rest flat and to
remain hidden from view when
looking from the front of the mitten.
