I have used only one skein of Zauberball (colour 2079) that is green-white-pink for the flower pattern. I diveded the skein into smaller balls of individual green and pink colour (and left out the white) and knit the leaves in green and the flowers in pink.

The background yarn is a skein of dark grey Admiral (also from Schoppelwolle).

Those two skeins are enough for both the mittens and a matching hat.

The fit of the mitten is pretty good (if I may say so myself) because the thumb gusset is placed at the side of the mitten and makes it very comfortable to wear.
