Notes
Bundle the Wilder Mitts with the Wilder Woods Hat for $2 off! No coupon needed, just add both patterns to your Ravelry cart.

As the winter weather grows wilder, knitters cozy up with their wool garments. Enter the Wilder Mitts, a set of mitts designed to brighten up the dark, cold days of winter.

A twisted rib cuff blends seamlessly into a graphic colorwork pattern that uses 3 colors of fingering weight yarn. Only a few yards of each contrast color are needed, making this a wonderful stash busting project. Choose a color palette with strong contrast for a bright pop or use a subtler palette for a vintage vibe.

Wilder’s colorwork chart is deceptively simple to work. While the chart uses 3 colors, only 2 colors are worked together at a time.

If you enjoy this pattern, be sure to check out the Wilder Woods hat, a sister pattern to the Wilder Mitts!
