Après-Snowshoe is a collaboration for Indie Untangled’s “Where We Knit” collection, using yarn dyed by Tatiana Brivet of Tumalo Fiber and a design by Seth Richardson. Seth and Tatiana both live in Oregon and share a favorite cold-weather pastime of settling into a lodge or a brew pub after an exhilarating snowshoe adventure. We modeled our collaboration after a photo of this classic fireplace at the Timberline Lodge on Mt. Hood. It represents that cozy moment of warming up after a day of hiking among the snow-covered fir trees, spending time with friends, and knitting a few rows with your favorite seasonal drink by your side. We hope you enjoy this cowl and that it brings you some warmth and a taste of wintertime in Oregon.
