Skills Required / What You'll Receive

The two main techniques used are slip stitch crocheting (NO: pjoning) and the waistcoat stitch. The cuff is crocheted in rows and then sewn together, and then the hand is crocheted on the cuff with two colours in the round. The idle thread is worked inside the stitch, so there are no loose ends on the inside. I-cord for keeping the mittens together.

All techniques are explained with photos.
