I have been so thrilled at the reaction to my Orla Mittens, since they are one of my favorite designs (so far).
One thing that sometimes keeps people from knitting a mitten like this is the need for smaller amounts of different color yarns. Well, the Esty shop Sophie’s Toes has made it a little easier for you and is offering a kit for the Orla Mittens. Each kit contains 150 yards of the main color and 50 yards each of three contrasting colors. There are lots of color palettes to chose from.
You can see a pair of mittens knit up with this yarn on Ravelry here. These just became available last night, so make sure to get the color palette you want before they sell out! And stay tuned, it looks like we’ll have a kit to give away soon!
(Just Crafty Enough is not affiliated with Sophie’s Toes and is not being paid to talk about these kits other than being given a kit.)

Those are lovely! Although I already have several boxes full of suitable smaller amounts of yarn, leftover from other things.
