The girls have been begging for me to crochet them something with lots of bright, rainbow colors. Of course i’m going to oblige! I already knew a matching headband and fingerless mitt set would be super cute but I still had to hunt down the perfect yarn!
I decided to go to JOANN and check out the yarn because I knew it was currently the Yarnormous sale! Unless you are brand new to the yarn life, than you already know the Yarnormous sale that happens every year is THE best time to stock up on yarn!
I found a really pretty Mandala Sparkle yarn by Lion Brand and knew it would be perfect for this project! The color I picked was Serpents but they had a ton of different color combos to chose from. I absolutely had to get this color because it reminded me of Lisa Frank! Don’t you agree? I had so many Lisa Frank folders, stickers and pencils back in the day with fun crazy colors like this! I had to go with the name Frankie for this design! Haha
The best part about this project is using up the different colors in the cakes however you want. You can cut and join to arrange colors to your liking! I ended up with a purple and pink headband with matching green and blue mitts! I added some trim on to both the mitts and headband to give it even more color.
Make sure you head to YouTube for the full video tutorials! I have one available for the headband and one available for the fingerless mitts if you need some extra help!
You might recognize this stitch as the same one I used in The Kiah Cardigan and The Winter Moonlight Set! If you want adult size mittens, beanie and cardigan then be sure to check them out!
