Teewinot is the Shoshone name for the Grand Tetons, meaning “Many Pinnacles”. Teewinot Mountain is one of the five peaks of the Cathedral Group of the Grand Tetons, being just northeast of the Grand Teton. This simple but elegant, one-skein crescent shawl is perfect to wear on chilly mountain evenings.

A very big thank you to Barbara Benson for her basic crescent shaped shawl tutorial as the inspiration for this shawl.
