One of my first patterns on Moogly was the Chevron Lace Wrap – and I’m delighted to see that people are still making it! Chevrons are here to stay! And recently I got a request for matching crochet fingerless gloves – and I thought that was a great idea! I’ve been traveling, and these were made on the road, photographed in a hotel room… and came in very handy when there was a sudden drop in the temperature! Introducing the free crochet pattern for Chevron Lace Fingerless Mitts! UPDATE: I’ve had this pattern tech edited (thank you Kyla!!) and it should be much clearer now! Thank you all for your patience!

This pattern is made with DK weight yarn, for a slim and warm fit. I used a self striping sock yarn, Schachenmayr Regia Stripemania Color! The mitts only used a little bit of the yarn, but I’ll have a pattern up soon to use up more of the skein, and keep the chevron fun coming!

Can’t wait to make these gloves. I love the chevron lace pattern. I’ve made 8 throws this summer using the Big Bold Chevron pattern. Thank you for sharing.
Tamara Kelly
😀 Wow, thank you so much Chris!
julie gALVAN
what the size of these gloves? Also can i make this project and sell it on my etsy shop?
Tamara Kelly
They are adult female size – they have a fair amount of stretch, so one size fits most. You are welcome to sell finished items. 🙂
janet holbrook
Can’t wait to try this pattern. I can crochet with a cold body….blankies galore, but once the hands get cold I am doomed. Thank you!
Tamara Kelly
😀 Thanks Janet! I hope you like them!
Jann from Newton Custom Interiors
Tamera – it was great to meet you this week, and I’m very impressed that you got some blogging done while you were gone!
Tamara Kelly
😀 It was great to meet you too Jann! It was a busy but amazing week! Hope you’re feeling much much better now!
Alida
I really love these mitts… love your patterns! Are you going to do a hat to go with? I only ask because I was wanting to make these and chevron lace wrap as christmas gift and have looked everywhere for a hat to match but none are quite right 🙂
Raenne
Thank you so much for the pattern. I love how elegant they look!
I am wondering if I’m reading things wrong, or if there might be a mistake (I know it’s more likely I’m not understanding!) – In Round 3, just before the wide dc tog, there is an extra dc (so it looks like 3dc at the point with a ch in between each pair, then 6 dc down one slope, the extra dc I’m concerned about, then on the upswing you have 6 dc (3 reps of dc in st, dc in ch sp) and it goes right back into the dc, ch1, dc, ch1, dc all in one st. So one side gets an extra st – is that right? How does it balance out later?
Tamara Kelly
It was an error! Good eye Raenne, thank you! I’ve edited the pattern to correct it – that ch 1 should’ve been a dc!
Lynn
These are really neat. Thanks for sharing

😀 Thank you Lynn!

Hello I absolutely love these mitts, but unfortunately I’m having trouble with the pattern. I’ve been crocheting and taking apart for several hours now, I’m so frustrated I’m going to have to give up. ;( Maybe I’m not smart enough to follow your pattern. Do you think you could look it over and make sure it’s written correctly? I’m really sorry to ask this of you, but I really do love these mitts.
Thanks,
Vivian
Tamara Kelly
What part is giving you trouble Vivian?
Lori Grover
I am having trouble with Round 4. The wide dc2tog isn’t location is off by one stitch… Can you help me with this? I really like the pattern. Thank you. Lori
Tamara Kelly
Hi Lori! Have you looked at the chart in the pattern?
Kelly
Do you know how to scale this to fit a smaller or larger person?
Tamara Kelly
I would use a larger or smaller hook size. 🙂
Kelly
With the same pattern? 🙂
Vivian Carlson
Do you have a diagram for these? And if yes do you think you could post it? I think that would help me follow your pattern better.
Thanks,
Viv 😉
Celeste Wood
I’ve been working and reworking this pattern…..counting and recounting. I cannot get row 4 to end properly. I read some of the comments and see that I’m not alone and that you have corrected the pattern yet I’m not getting past row 4. Is there a correction link that I am not seeing? Please help, I love these gloves and am trying to make them for my daughters for christmas. Thanks 🙂
Tamara Kelly
I’ll get a chart up today. 🙂
Chevy
I love this… but I am having trouble during round 2… there’s an extra sp… do I join at the end of the FSC 40 .. then ch 4? Or ch 4 and continue? Also when I tried Rnd 3 it seems to get smaller and smaller. 🙁 I wanted to make this for xmas but I am confused… is it possible to upload a video? 🙂
Tamara Kelly
I’ll try to get a video out sometime before Christmas. 🙂
Chevy
Ok Thank you 🙂
Daisy
I’m still having problems. I now can’t work out round 7.
*sc 2, hdc 3, dc 2, wide dc3tog, dc 2, hdc 3, sc 2,** 3 sc in next st; repeat from * to **, sc in 1st st of previous round, sl st to 1st st of round. Do you mean 2sc in next st or 1 sc in next 2 sts? and so on.
I’m sorry to be a pain but I just don’t understand the way you write your patterns. I only understand the stitches, it’s just the placement I don’t get and look forward to seeing your video.
Tamara Kelly
I’m having it tech edited and will post a revised pattern soon. 🙂
Nadine
love the fingerless gloves and would like to make a pair but the price of the yarn is bit steep for my budget,, what can I use the Red heart Heart & Sole, I have some of it already…
Love all your patterns ,, your work is so pretty,,
Tamara Kelly
Thank you Nadine! And yarn of the right weight should work. 🙂
Candace
I don’t know what it is but when I get to rows 3 and 4 I think it get 3 done correctly but when I get to the end of row 4 it’s not ending right and I don’t have much luck with charts. I don’t know where it’s going wrong
Tamara Kelly
I’m afraid without being there is very hard to say! 🙁
rajiscrafthobby

Tamara Kelly
Thank you so much! 😀
