Can't Stop the Signal

The loss of Brew City dyer Tahra to COVID-19 has profoundly impacted the midwest knitting community, leaving a void that many still feel. On the one-year anniversary of the pandemic declaration, I was inspired to cast on this beautiful cabled hat pattern using the single skein of Brew City Yarns that I had stashed away. This unique and heartfelt pattern serves as a tribute to all that we've lost during this challenging time. It is offered for free, and I warmly encourage you to support Tahra's family by donating to the fund set up in her honor (link not permitted). The colorway for this yarn, inspired by the beloved series Firefly, adds a touch of nostalgia and warmth to your project. As you embark on this knitting journey, please remember to continue your own thrilling heroics: wear a mask, get vaccinated as soon as you are eligible, and assist your friends and family members in getting their vaccines too. Together, we can honor the memory of those we’ve lost while spreading kindness and safety within our communities.

This stunning cabled hat not only provides warmth and comfort but also offers a fashionable flair that would look dashing on nearly anyone in the 'verse. Embrace this project as a way to channel your love for knitting while paying homage to a cherished member of our community. Start crafting your piece today and join us in celebrating resilience and support through the art of knitting.
