Love your idea about using light colors ... my most recent project has waaaaay too much contrast so the colors peek through. Ugh!<br /><br />What patterns did you use for the mittens? I'm redcanoe on Ravelry ...<br /><br />:-)The WoodLand Schoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10130111285463882069noreply@blogger.com
