Miura Cowl
I bought this pattern back in March, when Olga Buraya-Kefelian was generously donating 85% of all pattern sales to Japanese relief efforts. The Miura Cowl has beautiful texture and folds, and knit in Plymouth Earth Hillside Linen, is the perfect weight for the cool spring we’ve been having in Toronto.
I cast on 228 stitches for a longer, infinity-style cowl but check out RobbyRaccoon’s shorter version. Very pretty! I’ll just have to make another one!

Gorgeous! How did you like the yarn? What an unusual and intriguing fibre combination!!

Thank you!
Elena, I love this yarn! I picked up a couple skeins in the dark charcoal at The Purple Purl as well, which I used for Michele Wang’s Eternity Scarf. It drapes really beautifully once it’s been blocked — I think it would make an amazing pullover.
