Tenebrae is Latin for darkness, and the skies get very dark up here in Alberta. But the violet-blue midnight darkness is suffused with the faint glow from far-off stars and galaxies. The beautiful night sky of Alberta is the inspiration for this soft, drapey cowl. Lace eyelets are speckled throughout the cowl to mirror the scintillas of light that shimmer and sparkle overhead.

Thank you to Hewetopia Fiber Art for yarn support on this pattern.
