Benton Harbor Hat and Cowl Pattern
If you’re looking for mystery and intrigue, look no further than Benton Harbor, Michigan. When you connect the dots between Benton Harbor, Ludington, and Manitowoc, Wisconsin you’ll create a triangle of paranormal activity second only to the Bermuda Triangle.Boats have mysteriously disappeared in this area of Lake Michigan with seemingly no explanation for hundreds of years.
The only thing that will disappear when knitting the Benton Harbor hat or cowl will be the bits and bobs of light worsted weight or heavy DK yarn that you’ve had stashed in your collection just waiting for a special project.
The superstitious may want to knit the pattern as written in four colors, and have a beautiful color study to keep you warm. A braver knitter may want to go out on a limb and switch both colors every six rows to use up left overs and create a kaleidoscope of color to wear on the dreariest of winter days.
