hdc in the 3rd loop = Look at the top of the stitch, and locate the sideways “V”, bend the stitch to look at the back, and you should see another “V”. You’ll be working into the back loop of that “V”, this is called the 3rd loop.When working in rows this 3rd loop will be facing you. Click the link for a picture tutorial.

Additional Notes:
-Ch 1 at beginning of round does not count as a stitch.
-This pattern can be made longer or shorter based on the length of the person’s hand that you are making the mittens for.
-Pull your joins snug to minimize the seam.
-This pattern does not have a toddler size because this yarn is pretty thick for tiny fingers. See notes for some sugggestions to create a toddler size with #2 or #3 yarn.
-Some photos are included in the adult size mitten pattern to help you place the convertible end of the mitten properly. The same idea applies to the child size mitten.
