Fractals are fascinating! The Sierpinski Triangle is based on the “Chaos Game” and are the perfect gift for your favorite math-nerd. You can make your triangles as detailed as you would like by adding embroidery.

These mittens come in 2 sizes, Size 1: 56 stitch and Size 2: 64 stitch, with 2 options for wrist diameter. You can create a variety of sizes based on gauge, yarn, and needle size: Testers used between 150 yards for the smallest size and 275 for the largest size. Approximately 1/3 of the yarn is contrast color and 2/3 is master color.
