Morning Coffee Mitts

                   Morning Coffee Mitts

                   Materials: Crochet hook, size 00. Scissors, sock yarn. (Btw, I used Stardust yarn from Red Heart. One ball is easily enough to make a pair.)

                  Pattern: Ch 48, join with a slip stitch in the first chain to join for working in the round.
                  Round 1: Ch 1, sc all chains around. (48 sc)
                  Round 2: Ch 5, skip three sc, sc in next stitch. Continue around. (12 ch5 loops.)
                  Round 3: Ch 1, (sc 4, ch 5, sc 4) into each loop around. Connect with a slip stitch on the first sc of the first loop.
                  Round 4-8: Repeat rnd 3
                  Round 9, Left hand: Work 8 loops, then work 3 dc into last sc of the Shell underneath the 8th shell of this round. Ch 5 and 3 dc into the frst stitch of the next shell worked in round 8.
                  Round 10: Work as for round 3, making sure to make a shell in ch 5 space between dcs.
                  Round 11 (Thumb Round): Left hand: Work 4 shells, in next two shells, work nine sc. Do NOT make the setup chain for either of these loops. Slip stitch into the top sc of shell #7 of round 10. Turn work and ch 9, slip stitch into the first sc of shell #5 of this round. Turn the work again, so now you're back in the same direction you started with. (Sc 4, ch 5, sc 8, ch5, sc4) into ch 9. Finish round 11.
                  Round 12-14:Work normally, as round 3.
                  Round 15: Sc 9 into every loop around. Fasten off and weave in ends. Enjoy!
