Pattern #39 in the original U.S. National Park inspired
line of beanies

by Nancy Bates

Aside from protecting the world’s most extensive Permian fossil reef, Guadalupe Mountains offers up canyons, forests, dunes, mountains, and incredible dark skies. From the snakes and lizards of the desert floor to the bears and elk in the mountains, the wildlife is as diverse as the terrain. A strenuous hike to the top of Guadalupe Peak (the highest point in Texas) rewards hikers with a breathtaking view – a view from the “Top of Texas”. Inspired by the patterns and rich colors of the Southwest, the bottom half of this design features stranded knitting with duplicate stitch accents. The top half features subtle vertical texture, representative of iconic El Capitan and Guadalupe Peaks.
