Introducing Burrow, a beanie that wraps you in the warmth of home, like a shelter against the chill. Starting with a clever crochet, top-down construction and gentle 2x2 rib increases, this hat grows beautifully - just like the cosiness of a snug burrow.

The slightly chunky texture of Worsted Grey - a warm, woolly blend of fleeces makes it wonderfully soft and fun to knit. Designed to use just one skein of yarn, Burrow is the perfect project for gift knitting or a satisfyingly speedy addition to your winter accessories.

Simple, thoughtful, and warm, Burrow is a cosy embrace for winter days.
