The Valley Yarns Albedo Kit includes the PDF pattern
download and the two colors of Berkshire yarn needed to knit this colorwork
hat.
Warm, cozy, and sized to fit everyone on your gift list, Albedo is a project
that will be fun to knit and comfortable to wear too. Albedo begins with a
simple ribbed band and transitions to a beautiful stranded colorwork motif
before decreasing for the crown and ending with a fun pom-pom on top. Valley Yarns
Berkshire is a single ply blend of wool and alpaca that has superb warmth and slight
halo. Projects knit in Berkshire will keep their wearers toasty warm, and
Albedo is no exception, easily warding off winter’s chill. Colorwork pattern
is charted only.
