Turquoise Trail Cowl
I’ve been thinking a lot about gratitude recently and as part of that I’m starting a new Gratitude Program. I’m offering a free pattern of your choice for every $25 spent on my Ravelry patterns. Past purchases on Ravelry definitely apply! I wrote a blog post explaining the program here. Happy knitting!

ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Turquoise Trail Cowl features southwest-inspired textured cable panels that evoke both cabochons of turquoise and trails. “Cabochons” are formed with Lifted-Over Knot Stitches and the “trails” are simple 2/2 cables. Directions for both the Long Version and Short Version are written as two separate patterns giving you two cowl patterns! The Turquoise Trail Cowl uses the same textured cable panels as my Turquoise Trail Pullover. The Turquoise Trail is an easy day trip along national scenic byways in New Mexico starting from either Albuquerque or Santa Fe.
