Colour Dipped Oven Mitts by Kim Miller

Skill Level: Easy/Intermediate

Add a splash of colour to your kitchen with these DIY felted oven mitts. These oven mitts are first crocheted from 100% wool for felting and then felted until they become soft and fuzzy.

This crochet pattern calls for 1¾ skeins of Cascade Yarns® 220, a ¼ skein of each contrasting colour and a 4.00 mm (G) crochet hook (or size needed to obtain gauge). The pattern uses the following techniques and stitches: the adjustable ring, single crochet, half double crochet, double crochet and half double crochet 2 together.

The finished mitt measures cm 12.7 cm (5”) wide and 26.7 cm (10½”) long. Please note that measurements are approximate and will be affected by gauge, the brand of yarn and the felting process.

sneak peek.

My sister-in-law inspired this pillow cover. She showed me a picture of a pillow that she fell in love with while visiting a little gift shop. She is a thrifty girl and a DIYer at heart so she sadly walked away from it, hoping that someday she could have something similar.  She showed the picture to me and it inspired this new design.  Hope she likes it!!


Won't be long and I will have the pattern up for you all to enjoy!

Bernat Blanket is a super bulky yarn with the texture of chenille, so everyone that comes into my house not only oohs and ahhs, but they immediately have to go over and touch this super soft and chunky throw...
