Taos
Modern knitting inspired by hand-woven goods of the old Southwest. I love the drape of this stole, which is accomplished by wide ribs worked on the bias. There the 16 colors are worked in simple stripes, with color-changes taking place every two rows (mostly), so that loose ends quite easily become fringe, with little weaving in to do later. The stole is worked in two pieces from tip to center and then grafted. Flattering and versatile; wear as a scarf, a stole, a wrap, a shawl.
Taos is available only as a kit, which uses 4 fiber blends: merino, merino cashmere, merino angora, and merino tweed; in
16 harmonious colors: moth, stone, blackish, earth, cedar, delft, rain, coral, bay, iris, zinnia, carnation, bone, khaki, sky, ice. The kit: includes yarn, pattern with written row-by-row instructions and a handy chart, plus a muslin Sunday Knits project bag.
Taos is the 9th in a series of Pueblo Stole designs.
Love Taos but want to use your own yarn? … then Sonoma stole may be what you’re looking for, as it is a create-your own colorway version of this stole.
