Sprinklify Mittens

#sprinklifymittens

If you’re looking for a quick and fun project (that doesn’t require a lot of yarn), these mittens are just for you! The Sprinklify mittens will keep your fingers warm thanks to the dense and rich fabric created by working multiple strands of yarn.

The mittens are worked using three different colours to achieve a sprinklify effect. I recommend choosing one pop of colour (I went for coral) paired with one lighter colour in a similar shade (I matched it with light pink) and combining them with one contrasting colour (I chose a dark brown). Or, if feeling brave, only choose vibrant, high-contrast colours. Then again, if you’re a lover of neutrals, go for the total opposite by sticking to yarns that are close to each other on the colour spectrum for a toned-down look. After all, that’s the most fun part of creating your own garments – getting to choose and customize everything exactly to your liking.
