Binding Item itself inside list dataTemplate xaml

I can't find the right syntax to bind directly the item of my list in xaml.

<Listview ItemsSource={Binding Items}>
    <Listview.ItemTemplate>
        <CustomUserControl Item={Binding} />
    </Listview.ItemTempalte>
</Listview>

this code works fine. But when i want to add a converter to the binding, it displays me a syntax error : 

<Listview ItemsSource={Binding Items}>
    <Listview.ItemTemplate>
        <CustomUserControl Item={Binding ,Converter={StaticResource myConverter}} />
    </Listview.ItemTempalte>
</Listview>

Does anyone know the way to do it ?

Thanks!

Ok so the answer was just

{Binding Converter={StaticResource myConverter}}

without the comma..

I think you use converter in a wrong way. You may try to define your converter as static resource.

            <converters:MyConverter x:Key="myConverter" />

and use this way

<Listview ItemsSource={Binding Items}>
<Listview.ItemTemplate>
    <CustomUserControl Item="{Binding, Converter={StaticResource myConverter}" />
</Listview.ItemTempalte>

or 

<Listview ItemsSource={Binding Items}>
<Listview.ItemTemplate>
    <CustomUserControl Item="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Converter={StaticResource myConverter}" />
</Listview.ItemTempalte>
