Star Sign Stash Mittens - VIRGO

Discover a delightful stash yarn project designed to help you use up all those odd little remnants in your yarn collection! This is the eighth release in our exciting series of 12 unique knitting patterns, with each one honoring a different star sign. Our fingerless mittens feature the astrological symbol for Virgo and are crafted in the colors most commonly associated with this Earth sign.

For the Earth sign Virgo, we have chosen vibrant shades of green to reflect the sign’s earthy nature; however, the color palette is open to your personal interpretation and creativity. The mittens showcase a beautiful lace flower border complemented by a delicate beaded edging. To add a personal touch, you can incorporate the Virgo symbol, which is elegantly worked in duplicate stitch, onto the finished mittens.

This versatile pattern is offered in three sizes, making it suitable for everyone from pre-teens to adults. Each pair of mittens utilizes approximately 35 - 40g of a main color in DK yarn, as well as 20g for the border color, plus an additional 5g of assorted oddments in colors of your choice. This makes it a perfect project for using up scrap yarn!

The mittens are crafted flat on single-point needles and then seamed together for a cozy fit. The pattern comes with detailed row-by-row instructions, accompanied by explanatory photos and charts for each size, ensuring ease of understanding when placing the motif.

For my mittens, I opted for a superwash wool yarn for its softness and durability, but feel free to experiment with other DK yarn options that suit your preferences. Whether you are a novice knitter or a seasoned pro, you will enjoy this creative and engaging project. Get started on your Virgo-inspired fingerless mittens today and add a touch of astrological flair to your wardrobe!
