You will use 2 colors of Noro Silk Garden for these mittens - I used color numbers #269 and #359, one skein of each color. Try and pick 2 colors that are similar but different enough so you can tell them apart or choose 2 totally different colors that blend well!

Size US 7 double point needles were used for this project and the finished mittens will fit a medium to large hand. Silk Garden relaxes some after it is washed so you might consider knitting these a little on the snug side to accommodate for that.
