This winter hat is quick-to-knit project, using one skein of bulky yarn. It's worked in a warm and dense honeycomb brioche pattern that's also stretchy enough to fit most head sizes. Hanabi means fireworks in Japanese, the inspiration for the multicoloured pom pom.
Circle R Livestock: A Family Farm
One of our big goals for Sweet Paprika this year was to source a new line of Canadian wool yarns. We started contacting farms and mills last January, researching options, connecting with farmers, and collecting samples. Eventually we settled on working with wool from , a family farm in southern Ontario operated by Romy and Ryan Schill and their children.
