Scotch Thistle Lace Stole
$5.50
HeartStrings pattern for a beutiful lace stole with a flowing sequence of leaf and flower motifs, symbolic of the regal Scotch thistle. As with the stately thistle where taller leaf stalks form at base of the plant and dainty flower heads adorn tips of the stalks, the lace leaf and flower motifs in this knitted stole transition from taller to shorter. Select a yarn as soft as thistle down in colors of Scotch thistle as shown, or anything that delights your knitterly senses. The stole is knitted in two pices, then joined at the middle by an easy method that does not require grafting. Sample knitted with Schaefer Yarns Anne. 550 yards fingering weight yarn, size 6 needles.
