Véronik created a luxuriously soft and snuggly stole by working with Loft on a large needle and lace-blocking the finished fabric. Simple garter stitch is transformed into a pillowy, cloudlike stole that is equally at home wrapped around the shoulders or bundled under a winter coat as a long scarf. The charted half of the stole features a graphic lace snowflake motif, while the second half is filled with a random eyelet “snow”pattern. Have fun embracing your inner knitting spontaneity – no two stoles will be exactly the same!
CONSTRUCTION
Stole is worked from the center out using a provisional cast on; one half is worked first, then the stitches are picked up from the provisional cast on to work the second half.
