We are officially in holiday crunch mode now that Thanksgiving has passed. And times like these call for quick, satisfying projects that you can whip out in no time at all for all of your last-minute gifting needs. With the arrival of Brooklyn Tweed’s new yarn Arbor a few weeks ago and the arrival of the Arbor Collection in space this week, we thought it would be appropriate to highlight one of the many lovely accessories designed for this awesome yarn. Burnaby by Jared Flood is a unisex textured hat originally designed for Quarry that has been retooled into a DK weight option, coming in two sizes for each yarn weight. Texture panels surround the beanie and are separated by simple rope cables for added interest. Choose one of the many beautiful colors of Arbor for a more lightweight and versatile hat or go with chunky Quarry for a quick knit for your favorite snowbird. Both yarns really show off the pattern and make hats that are just as much fun to give as they are to make.
