This one really sings to me!
Designed as part of Brooklyn Tweed's Loft Collection this great little beanie (or tam) needs only 150 (270) yards of fingering weight wool yarn, depending on the style you are choosing.
We suggest that you take a look at our marvelous Canopy Fingering yarn and select a color --- what a wonderful thing to knit! Delightful to make, wonderful to wear.
Here are more specifications. BTW, the pattern that we have here is a six-page folio printed on heavy card stock.
