Latvian Memories is a stranded colorwork cowl that is knit in the round on a circular needle in worsted weight yarn, using written instructions and a chart. Latvian Memories is a quick and enjoyable knit with an unusual twisted edge that makes for a stunning addition to any wardrobe.

The graph for this cowl is from an ethnographic mitten in the Museum in Liepaja, District of Kurzeme in Latvia. The author first saw this mitten in person while on a knitting tour in Kurzeme, Latvia in May 2017.
