This stole has soo many great memories associated with it! It’s made with the very first ball of yarn I ever bought, and it’s also one of the very first things I ever designed myself. Though, that’s not to say this stole is the first thing I ever knitted (it is so not), nor was it the first project I tried to use my first ball of yarn on.

No, that one ball of yarn rode with me through 3 different apartments and then back and forth with me to work on Mondays, being used for test knits and learning new stitches for 6 or more months before it started to achieve its final evolution.

I designed this stole as a Christmas present for my mother. She HATES the cold! But, because she’s a sign and decal maker, she often has to brave the cold weather in the winter to put lettering on vehicles. She absolutely loves wide and long scarves she can wrap up over and around her head and shoulders. With that in mind, I created this pattern!

This voluptuous stole is perfect for beginners or someone looking for a relaxing knit as it follows a simple 4 row repeating pattern. Also, it’s a great project to play with color blocking!

I love to see what you create!
