Swallow Love Mittens - Mittens Knitting Pattern

The swallows represent love #valentinesday care and affection towards family and friends, showing the loyalty of the person always returning to them. The swallows also represent everlasting love and are associated with loyalty and fidelity. These birds choose a mate for life and will only nest with that bird and no other.
Swallows are also the symbol of coming home. Swallows return to the same place every year to mate and nes,t and they always follow the same migration pattern.

The mittens are mirror images of each other and therefore #OCDproof
