This stole defines luxury with its gorgeous texture and super soft drape. It can be knit to a generous length, as shown, to easily wrap around your neck, or shorter, if you prefer.
Knit it up in a soft and supple sport-weight yarn for beautiful softness. The sample here is in 100% alpaca, which is silky to the touch, and has great stitch definition and warmth.
The beautifully textured stitch pattern is surprisingly simple, with easy cable twists alternated with a very repetitive lace motif. The edges are all knit in and worked in a simple ribbing with twisted stitches worked on the wrong side.
This stole will become your new, modern heirloom piece.
