HOW TO CROCHET MITTEN ORNAMENTS
Start by making the main part of the mitt. This will be made working in rounds from the top of the mitt down to the bottom band all in one piece.
The thumb will then be crocheted as a separate piece, and sewn on in the last step.

Thumb
The thumb will be worked in continuous rounds through round 4. Then you will work a half row which will allow for nicer positioning of the thumb on the mitt. This half round will allow the thumb piece to sit at an angle instead of straight out if we had not made it.
Using 8.00 mm hook ch 2
Rnd 1: Work 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook. (6)
Rnds 2-4: Sc in 1st st and each st around (6)
