Sweethood gloves crochet pattern

Every winter I try to find new gloves for my kids because I am not a big fan of double pointed needles and do not like knitting such a small projects. This winter I decided to crochet gloves and fall in love with them! I really hope you would love them too! Crochet pattern for Sweethood gloves is written in form of photo tutorial and available in sizes from 3 years to 10 years.

Those gloves are crocheted back and forth which makes the process more enjoyable and fast. Actually, the pair of gloves can be easily finished in one day. It is also a good project for those who wants to play with colours as well as use some left over yarn. 

I used DK weight yarn as a main colour for all sizes and as contrast yarn for biggest size. Fingering and sport weight yarn used as a contrast shade for smaller sizes. 

Crochet pattern for Sweethood Gloves is available from Ravelry and Lovecrafts.
