The Snowbird Hat & Mitts are both great patterns to test out your stranded colorwork skills. They’re small, portable projects that pack a big, colorful punch. With seven different colors, these pieces throw open the door of color options and give you the chance to play with dominant and recessive colors. Try choosing two or three colors that work well together and then as the remaining colors pick either tints and shades of the main colors, or possibly their analogous colors. These accessories work up quickly and make a perfect addition to fall, winter, and spring wardrobes!
