Valley Yarns 1063 Albedo Kit

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.
