About Kit Mitchell

Always thinking about something new and different, and eager to do what’s next…Kathleen Mitchell has never been one to sit by idly and wait. In 1996, she traveled to Scotland on a bit of a lark with a half cooked notion of starting an importing business.

As her knitwear design acumen developed, she was determined to find a way to do something more meaningful and launched the make a difference collection of her own designs hand knit by displaced women of Bosnia Herzegovina. Aside from the success of the collection, the experience has given her a profound sense of awareness of the injustices in the world.
