This is a fundraising pattern for my late brother, Mino (1971-2004)

The third cowl “Embo” from the Cowl of Assassins series has two different width cables, combined with ktbl lines.

Malabrigo Rios works really well with this design in both color and texture. This Sand Storm colorway reminds me of the desert planet where Embo fights.

This unisex cowl fits comfortably around your neck: not too tight, not too loose.

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.
