Reminiscent of the streets in my quaint mountain hometown, McBryde is decorated with a falling leaf pattern sure to get your heart (and noggin!) ready for autumn. The rustic, chunky lace knits up quickly in aran weight yarn, and two layers allow for personal color customization as well as extra warmth.
