    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.

    Materials

    • Yarn: Bulky Weight / 5 / 100% acrylic was used for the crochet drink mitt in the photos
      • Approximately 104 yards total of Loops & Threads Charisma
    • Crochet Hooks: I/9/5.50mm; H/8/5.00mm, or size needed to obtain gauge (My favorite crochet hooks are the Clover Amour Hooks, I’ve never had an ache in my hand since switching)
    • Scissors
    • Yarn Needle
    • Locking Stitch Markers (4 or more)

     

    Many of these materials are available for purchase through our affiliates below:

    Size

    Gauge

    • 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.

    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.

      For the drink mitt pattern, do you have a matching pattern for a mitten for the other hand please? I love the idea of a drink mitt for when sitting in the ice hockey rinks watching my son and grandson play hockey. Thanks, Kathleen King
