Bee Mittens Knitting Kit

Happy knitting to all my Bee-otches! 🐝

These spirited mittens are full of personality - combining playful puns, eye-catching lettering, and a nod to the animal kingdom. They’re guaranteed to raise a smile while keeping your hands wonderfully warm, and make a fun, portable project to take anywhere.

These mittens are a roomy women’s medium or men’s small, with enough space to layer gloves underneath for extra warmth on chilly days. For a different fit, simply adjust your needle size.

Sample knitted by Susan Booth (WoolnLove).

At Home Farm Wensleydales, our ethos is rooted in animal care, welfare, and good husbandry. Our wool is produced to the highest standard using our finest fleeces, washed and spun in Yorkshire.

The result is a beautifully soft, smooth, silky yarn with natural lustre, worsted spun for excellent stitch definition - perfect for bold, playful designs like this.
