BUDAPEST AFTER MIDNIGHT is a relaxing, lacy cowl that is worked bottom up in the round. It is inspired by the city of Budapest at night. The reflection of the lights and bridges in the water of the Danube provides a new way to see the architecture of the city, with the occasional ripples lending a surreal fuzziness to the crisp clear reflections during the day.

This extra-long cowl is designed to cover your head to keep some heat in during the cool evenings, while the mohair/silk yarn lends a halo and romance to the architectural lace. The overall cowl is incredibly lightweight yet very warm.
