I have made 4 pairs of these finger-less mittens and it is truly an easy pattern. Easy to follow directions and with different size hooks and yarn the pattern is endless! Thank you so much for a great pattern for someone that doesn't do well following the directions.

I started crocheting these gloves and when I got to the "Glove Instructions" I wasn't able to to end up with the 22 stitches and the 24 stitches. Then I noticed that under stiches: Scdc was never used? Please help me to figure out what I'm doing wrong... Thanks anndrago

I did 10 single crochets and then 2 in one stitch twice on that row. Everything else worked out beautifully.
