Rosy Mittens
Explore the beauty of bold, abstract patterns with our stunning knitted mitts featuring intricate designs and striking roses! These unique mitts have a rich history, taking over two or three years to perfect. The process involved a variety of color changes, gauge adjustments, and numerous mitts knitted, with some even getting lost at a now-closed magazine. Ultimately, I decided to start fresh with the colors I truly desired right from the beginning!
These fashionable mitts incorporate six vibrant colors of yarn:
Two main colors are the star of the show: Oyster Heather (A, a lovely cream) and Coriander Heather (F, a deeper shade of cream).
The three reds that bring the roses to life include Tomato (B, a bright true red), Raspberry Heather (C, a cool-toned red), and Rosehip (D, a beautifully coraled red).
For contrast, we've chosen Turmeric (E, a deep, earthy yellow) to make the design pop.
A single ball of each color will be more than enough to complete your project.
These mitts are tailored for a snug fit and come with long, stylish cuffs. The thumb gusset is expertly shaped to create distinct pairs for both right and left hands. The cuffs are turned under and meticulously stitched down for a polished finish that enhances durability and elegance. This pattern is designed to be knitted from the bottom up, allowing for a satisfying crafting experience that showcases your skills.
The pattern comes fully charted, making it easy to follow whether you're a beginner or an experienced knitter looking to try out a new project. Embrace your creativity and express your love for bold designs with these eye-catching mitts! Perfect for gifting or treating yourself, these mitts are a delightful addition to any knitwear collection.
