When I lived in Denver, I worked in Larimer Square, downtown. On my lunch breaks, I would walk down Larimer Street until I could see the mountains in the distance, find a good place to sit, and knit as much as I possibly could while looking out over the snow caps. I designed this cowl to use minis or leftover skeins in one finished piece; to highlight your favorite dyers and colors in one wearable object. The colorwork pattern reminds me of the Denver skyline against the Rocky Mountains, and transported me right back to my secret knitting spots on Larimer Street.
