Leaving Lupines is the fifth design in the Storytime Knits Collection. This design was inspired by and directly complements the children’s book, Miss Rumphius, by Barbara Cooney. This cowl pattern includes instructions for both child and adult sizes and features a textured lace pattern that mimics lupine flowers.
