Smiley Diamonds Stole
Saw someone at my lys (Wollhaus, Woohoo!) wearing a similar wrap and decided it was the perfect thing for the random chunky/bulky yarns in my stash. She couldn’t remember the pattern name, so I dug through my stitch pattern books and found a similar motif.
This knits up into a giant triangle with big holes you can use to pull the ends through, which is useful if you’re like me and always misplacing shawl pins. Better still, it’s a triangle that doesn’t use that center increase thing that makes a big line down the middle. I hate that. The lace pattern is a simple repeat that you’ll be able to do in your sleep after the first couple of rounds. It benefits from a stern blocking to open up the lace.
I used size 13 needles with 200 yards of fiber. I ended up with 5–7 yards left over. I think this would work pretty well with size 15 needles, but you might need more yarn. I’m a US size L/XL, I can wrap it around my shoulders and have enough width to go around me and pull a tail through a hole to hold it. To make the project wider, work more 10-row repeats; each repeat adds 8” of width and 4” of height.
This would be good in a heavy fuzzy yarn, chunky yarns, several lighter weigh yarns held together.
Pattern is written & charted.
