Quite simple and worked in single crochet only, these mittens are available in three different sizes: women, child and pre-school age. Mrs. Murdock's Mittens by Brenda K. B. Anderson is a super quick and easy pattern that looks great by itself or with a matching hat and scarf. This is the perfect stash buster project meant to use up some small and extra-small balls of leftover yarn.

Love these
Wendy White
I’ve made this pattern in every size dozens of times. Lots of fun and really warm. Switch it up with stripes or color block.
Beautiful
Thank you. I really appreciate it. I sometimes have trouble following patterns, but not yours. I made the mittens for my granddaughters.
