These mittens are inspired by those worn by “Bella” (Kristen Stewart) in the movie, Twilight. The mittens are extra long and knit with bulky yarn, so they are super cozy! They’re also a simple, quick knit with nothing more complicated than a basic cable or decrease.

“Bella” was written and created by Amanda Acton. This pattern is for personal use only and may not be duplicated without the author’s express permission to do so. Please make as many of these mittens as you like, but I ask that you contact me if you’d like to sell them.
“Bella” is based on costuming in the motion picture, “Twilight” and loosely inspired by Tahra Lor’s pattern, “Bella’s Mittens.”
