The luscious wool and silk yarn used in this stole is the result of some deep stash diving. As such, the label is lost, so the brand is unknown. However, it’s much too pretty not to use! It inspired me to create a delicate lace design, based on traditional Estonian stitch patterns. These, of course, include nupps. Instructions for both traditional and easy nupps are included.

The instructions for the stole are provided both fully charted and written out.

Difficulty level
This stole contains lace that is worked on the right side of the fabric only. Stitches used include knit, purl, p1 below, k2tog, skp, yo, a centered double decrease (sl2-k1-p2sso), the bunny ears yo stitch, and nupps. Links to photo tutorials on the various techniques and stitches are provided.

This pattern is suitable for the intermediate to advanced knitter.

Yarn
480 m (525 yds) / 120 g yarn - brand unknown (50 % silk, 50 % wool; 480 m (525 yds) per 120 g).

Substitute any silk & wool blend fingering weight yarn of comparable thickness for a similar result.
