Many years ago, we carried a beautiful yarn called Luminosa. It was a shimmery tube filled with black alpaca. It made the most beautiful Grind Cowl, and everything was perfect…until…GASP…it was discontinued. We suppose all good things must come to an end.

But…hurrah! We finally found a fabulous new substitute from Juniper Moon Fibers that captures that same magic. And better still, this new yarn has a dreamy blend of cotton and alpaca. Perfect for any time of year!

The pattern is an easy repeat of knits and slips. You’ll get the rhythm and then just go round and round.
