Pattern #52 in the original U.S. National Park inspired
line of beanies

by Nancy Bates

The Green and Colorado Rivers have been carving out canyons in the high desert of southeast Utah for millions of years. The forces of erosion and the wonders of geologic movement continue to shape the mesas, buttes, spires, and arches of the Canyonlands we see today. The resulting landscape is the ideal location for adventures of all types or even a simple drive along the paved park road with its many overlooks. Using rich colors and simple stitches, you can recreate one of these amazing overlook views from the vertical texture of the canyon walls to the smooth mesa tops.

This pattern continues Nancy Bates’ series of 63 Beanies inspired by the U.S. National Parks. It was first released in the book Knitting the National Parks.

50g/100yds Color A
