Making it up as I go
I've been working on this stole on and off for many months, using the laceweight merino/silk/bamboo I spun from Juliespins batts. I'd wanted to knit the Sampler Stole from A Gathering of Lace, but wanted to knit a different center.
So I decided to use the alternate center pattern from Sharon Miller's Wedding Ring Shawl instead.
The borders are knit pretty much as given. But I haven't decided what edging to use yet....
Current spinning:
Soft and fluffy natural-colored 50/50 camel/silk fiber from Spunky Eclectic on my seemingly jet-propelled Golding Fleur spindle. It should make a fine and shiny laceweight.
And, finally, my public service announcement for the day: Susanna Lewis' Knitting Lace is being reprinted next month. One less thing to stalk eBay for!
