DIFFUCULTY
The Reindeer Paw is an intermediate hat pattern due to having to do colorwork in 3 colors at once, and long floats between colored sections. It is, however, a fairly simple and quick knit, and so would be great practice for those looking to improve their colorwork skills.

If sharing on social media, I’d love a tag: @vangyknits, and use the hashtags: #thereindeerpawhat and #vangyknits.
