MIU, designed by the extraordinary Natasja Hornby, to some better known as Moonstruck Knits, has all possible features to keep even the most experienced knitter interested.
The design allows unlimited colour play and can be easily personalised to suit your preference and style. There are two options to work the shell pattern of the lower body, giving you even more room to let your imagination run free. The two colour slip stitch pattern is simple to work and results in beautiful texture and a tweedy appearance. The trick is that the colours are reversed for the yoke and the sleeves.
Miu is a truly eye-catching masterpiece!

Our sample is knitted in size M using only 3 contrast colours instead of 5. We used Gatehouse(MC), Meadows(CC1), Farewell and Barn Door, meaning that we used only 3 colours for the shell pattern by alternating them in the following order: Farewell, Meadows and Barn Door.
Kits listed are for the original version. We replaced the colour Elm by Gatehouse. Please order separately if you prefer our sample with fewer colour or send us an email.
Kits include yarn and free PDF-instructions, without supplies.
