Walt Disney has brought so much magic to the silver screen. Cinderella’s glass slipper, Ariel’s thingamabobs, Belle’s books - we all recognize and cherish each of these movie masterpieces. When Tanis Gray approached us about being included in her new book, Knitting with Disney, we knew we had to “go the distance”! Here are five patterns from the book that we absolutely adore.

This light and airy lace shawl embodies Belle to a T - it is quite a Beauty! The Belle Shawl by Susanna IC is knit in Anzula’s Dreamy in Canary, and studded with lovely silver beads on the edges. If you’ve never tackled lacework before, this would be the perfect pattern to start! Can be made with or without beads.

These Floating Lantern Fingerless Mitts will give you great grip for holding a (cold) frying pan! Designed by Valorie Wibbens, these mitts have a beautiful picot trim with a ribbed edging on top, and a radiant sun pattern.

We recommend using Anzula Squishy in Curry and Rosebud.

This next pattern will allow you to show off your evil side! The Mistress of Evil Socks designed by Heini Perälä are perfect for keeping you cozy while you sleep - no spindle curse required.

We recommend using Anzula Squishy in Navy, Violet, Nimbus, and Avocado.

What a gorgeous scarf by Tanis Gray! The Merida Cabled Scarf is the perfect pattern to change your fate and learn how to cable.

We recommend Anzula Burly in Mariana and Toffee.

Our final pick is the “We Know the Way” Pillow and Blanket by Sauniell Connally. You’re going to want to “make way” for this cozy wave motif pattern in your knit schedule!

We recommend using Anzula Burly in Birdie.
