This is a fundraising pattern for my late brother, Mino (1972-2004)

“Cad Bane” - The fourth cowl for the “Cowl of Assassins” series is named after a bounty hunter in Star Wars the Clone Wars. According to my son, he is the most successful bounty hunter, whose face is a gorgeous blue.

A multiple ktbl rib patterns speak out throughout this cowl, even within the cables. The fitting is light and snug, but not bulky.

Skills required: k, ktbl, p, cables

All the proceeds of this pattern will be donated to the Minoru Hokari Memorial Scholarship Fund at the Australian National University. My late brother, Minoru Hokari (“Mino” 1971-2004) died of cancer at the age of 32. The scholarship fund supports young scholars who study Indigenous Australians through fieldwork. We are trying to fully fund it to achieve its perpetuity. Please help.
