Yarn

I’ve used a bulky/5 weight yarn for this crochet drink mitt. I wanted to make sure that it was thick enough to keep my hand and the drink warm (or cool). The yarn I used for mine was Loops & Threads Charisma as it was what I had on hand at the time. There are many other bulky weight yarns that you can substitute.

See individual sections for gauge.

Notes

Turning chain(s) are not included in stitch count unless noted otherwise.
The first stitch of every row is worked into the same stitch as the turning chain, unless stated otherwise.
Loops and Threads Charisma in Taupe was used for the mitt in the photos above. You can use another bulky/5 yarn as long as it’s similar in thickness and you match gauge.
Video Tutorial: I have a video tutorial for how to add a stretchy cuff. Watch it if you get stuck, or need clarification, with the cuff on this drink mitt. Click HERE for the tutorial.

Special Stitches

Join with a standing single crochet: When instructed to “join with a standing sc”, begin with a slip knot on your hook, insert the hook into the stitch or space indicated, yo and pull up a loop, yo and draw thru both loops on hook to complete the first stitch. Click HERE for tutorial.
