#150 Hungarian Szur
Worn by
Magyar herdsmen in Hungary as far back as the Middle Ages, the
Szur is a dramatic, mid-calf coat that was traditionally worn
over the shoulders as a cape and lavishly decorated with cutwork
felt appliqué. The geometric shapes of this garment make it an
ideal canvas for other handwork techniques, as well as for
handwoven fabrics. Pattern includes instructions for a
traditional and contemporary version, appliqué decoration, and
historical lore about the Magyar.
