Sierra – 228

Designed by Maureen Clark

In celebration of the 5th annual National Crochet Month blog tour sponsored by Crochetville.com, we’ve designed a fun infinity cowl with glamping in mind. Maureen created this design while on a trip to California; home to some of the most iconic and glamorous glamping spots to be found among the Sierra Mountains. The cowl’s undulating stripes of contrasting color can be bold and fun or soft and subtle. Either option can be crafted in just a few hours ensuring that you’ll have a new accessory by the time you reach your destination!

Four unique stitch patterns named after winter weather elements can be knit along to your daily forecast to create a record of your season or as the mood strikes you.
