Tawas Hat and Cowl Pattern
Today, Tawas is a little tourist town on the sunrise coast of Michigan in Saginaw Bay, but years ago, it was a logging town. The bay made a perfect place to build a lumber mill and to make use of the natural resources in the area. Nearby, you’ll even find Lumberman’s Monument—a testimony to the lumber industry’s influence in the local community.
The stitch pattern in this hat reminds me of falling logs, and I can imagine the spring runs with the nearby Rifle River filled with the timber being moved toward the mill and Lake Huron for shipping. Knitters will find this an easy to remember stitch pattern making it perfect for social knitting. The yarn overs help break up color pooling in hand painted yarns, and it is written for four different weights of yarn. Perfect for stash busting!
