Berroco 387 Mykonos Vol. 2 Crochet Pattern

Berroco Mykonos Vol. 2 Pattern Collection

Berroco Mykonos Vol. 2 is a downloadable PDF collection featuring five distinct garment designs created using Berroco Mykonos yarn. This collection showcases the versatility of the Mykonos fiber blend through both knitting and crochet techniques, offering patterns suitable for crafters working with either needles or hooks.

Yarn Specifications

Berroco Mykonos is a premium silky blend fiber specifically engineered to perform beautifully in both knit and crochet applications. The yarn composition is 66% Linen, 26% Nylon, and 8% Cotton, creating a fabric with exceptional drape characteristics. Each skein contains 142 yards and weighs 1.75 ounces (50 grams). The linen-dominant blend produces garments with a refined, fluid aesthetic ideal for warm-weather wear and structured pieces.

Gauge and Needle/Hook Requirements

Projects worked in Berroco Mykonos are designed to achieve a gauge of 21–24 stitches by 28–32 rows over 4 inches (10 centimeters). Knit patterns call for US size 4–6 needles (3.5–4 millimeter) to achieve proper fabric density and drape. Crochet patterns utilize appropriate hook sizes to match the knit gauge specifications, ensuring consistent fabric characteristics across the collection.

Fabric Characteristics and Performance

The Mykonos fiber blend creates fabrics with amazing drape, a hallmark quality of the linen-cotton-nylon combination. The high linen content contributes to the yarn's natural sheen and fluid movement, while nylon adds durability and elasticity. This makes the collection ideal for garments requiring elegant drape, such as lightweight tops, wraps, and structured pieces that benefit from the fabric's natural flow.

Care Instructions

Garments created from Berroco Mykonos require handwashing to maintain fiber integrity. After washing, pieces should be laid flat to dry to preserve shape and prevent stretching. This care method is standard for delicate linen blends and ensures longevity of the finished garment.
