ABOUT THE PATTERN
The Turquoise Trail Pullover is a simple top-down seamless raglan with a scoop neck, positive ease and subtle shaping for a relaxed fit. Textured cable panels frame the neck and bottom of the body and sleeves. Named Turquoise Trail because the southwest-inspired textured cable panels evoke both cabochons of turquoise and trails. “Cabochons” are formed with Lifted-Over Knot Stitches and the “trails” are simple 2/2 cables. Written in 8 sizes. Cables charted and written. The Turquoise Trail in New Mexico is an easy day trip along national scenic byways starting from either Albuquerque or Santa Fe.
