Valley Yarns Snowshoe is knit in Deerfield’s luscious alpaca and silk blend which shows off the Icelandic colorwork pattern wrapping the rise of this cozy beanie, which is inspired by the appearance of snowshoe tracks on a winter hike. Valley Yarns Deerfield has a delicate feel and appearance. The silk provides extra durability and a slight sheen while the alpaca offers a soft halo. The colorwork pattern is in chart form only.
