ABOUT MESA LIGHT COWL

As the sun sinks low and the desert sky comes alive in shades of peach, rose, and gold, the mesas glow with a quiet light all their own.

The Mesa Light Cowl captures that fleeting moment when warmth lingers in the air, the horizon softens, and the desert feels endless and calm.

Knit in the round with an easily memorizable stitch pattern, this cowl is a gentle companion for mindful making. Its shifting textures and colors reflect the beauty of desert light, while its cozy drape makes it the perfect layer for crisp mornings, golden evenings, or any moment you want to carry a touch of serenity with you.

Slip it on, and let the glow of the mesa wrap you in comfort.
