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
River Song is one of my favorite people in the Dr. Who series. The colors and the elegant yet simple cables evoke her for me. As an added bonus the stitch pattern closely resembles the symbol for water or river in the petroglyphs of the desert Southwest. So, there was no way I could name this cowl anything other than River. Edited and updated for 2019.
