It's a really fun oven mitt with a marbled effect - this is achieved by crocheting 3 different colored strands together at once. You could use 3 strands of the same color for a solid oven mitt. This mitt works up so quickly and the best part? It could double as a bath mitt!

Be sure to use cotton yarn and the same hook size that I use (an L 8mm hook) so that you get a very tight stitch. This may be a bit uncomfortable to crochet as working tight stitches with 3 strands feels different from stitching along normally, but it is essential to this oven mitt protecting from the heat of the oven.

To protect further against a hot pan, line this mitt with a thick fabric or quilt batting. Although, this pattern creates a thick crochet oven mitt so you should be just fine.

As far as sizing, this mitt is a bit of a slimmer fit, fitting snuggly on an adult woman's hand. I created this pattern a bit smaller because I hate when an oven mitt slips off - what good does it do protecting against a hot oven while slipping and sliding? No good, I tell ya!

Make this mitt for your own kitchen or give it as a housewarming or hostess gift with a batch of cookies!
