Crochet Elf Handwarmers Pattern!

Here is the pattern for the elf hand warmer tutorial I recently uploaded to YouTube. I hope you learn a little about crochet and making something quick and useful! You can stripe with any colors you like, it doesn't have to be Christmas related.

To finish: Leaving yarn attached, fold work in half with right sides touching. Use crochet hook to sew across green section of hand warmer, as shown in video or using your favorite method. Fasten off green yarn. Weave in ends. Use crochet hook and tail of red or white yarn to sew across double crochet striped section of hand warmer, leaving 2-3 rows unsewn. Fasten off. Weave in ends. Sew up the single crochet section of hand warmer in the same manner. Fasten off. Weave in all ends. Turn hand warmer inside out.

Before decorating, make sure one glove is facing up and the other down (so you have thumb holes facing each other...a pair of warmers), then proceed.
