You Belong Mitts

Discover the enchanting 'You Belong' mitts, a delightful knitting pattern crafted in the round using the magic loop technique. These unique mitts feature stunning mosaic knit (slipped stitch) stripes, allowing you to showcase your creativity with a beautiful array of colors. Utilize a striking main color for the top and bottom ribbing, which elegantly frames the intricate CC stripes in between.

Inspired by the vibrant mini skein set from Wooly Witch of the West, the design draws upon the charm of wildflowers. Additionally, the classic song 'Wildflowers' by Tom Petty served as a muse, leading to the pattern's name ‘You Belong’. This evocative title embodies the sentiment that we all belong among the wildflowers, making these mitts a perfect emblem of nature’s beauty.

This sample was meticulously knit in size small and utilized a 5 skein mini set of non-superwash fingering weight yarn, which is naturally dyed by Wooly Witch of the West. The main color featured is The Fiber Co. Cumbria Fingering in the delightful shade ‘Catbells’. For this sample, I used 26 grams of the main color (MC) and just around 2 grams of each contrasting color (CC). The design is not just limited to the mitts; there’s also a matching cowl, crafted from the same exquisite yarn. You can easily knit both the cowl and the mitts with just 100 grams of MC and 10 grams of each CC, making it a wonderfully coordinated set.

Perfect for knitters of all levels, the 'You Belong' mitts are a fantastic way to express your love for knitting while embracing nature’s inspiration. Start knitting today and let your creativity blossom like wildflowers in the sun!
