I used a vintage sport weight yarn that I found at a local thrift store to create this very long stole. I modified a lace pattern I had previously taken note of to make wide rows of V’s and inverted V’s. The result came out looking like the panes of a Renaissance window. I called this Eagdura as that is Old English for “eye-door” also known as a window.
