The Snowy Creek Hat and Cowl are each 20% off with the code snowy through December 19.

The Snowy Creek Cowl features a main cable that is replicated around the cowl and sandwiched in between columns of twists. The cowl is worked from the bottom up. It is an easy knit and uses only 2/2 and 1/1 cables.

Snowy Creek also comes in a matching hat: Snowy Creek Hat. You can get both patterns for $9.00 (no code needed).
