Notes

Finished dimensions: Width 19.75” x Length 60” (without fringe) or 76” (with fringe).

Such a beautiful project. The fringe is Supa-Swag! The stole has a nice weight when you put it on and I think it would be quite warm.

What I learned:
1) I had to switch to a smaller hook on some of the stitches or the piece would get warpy. (The treble stitches and the basketweave stitch.)

2) When doing the fringe, using the yarn at the end of the skein (the inside), the yarn is wavy. When using the yarn at the beginning of the skein (the outside), the yarn lays straight.

3) Also when doing the fringe, I attached a fringe (5 strands) with two stiches in between, instead of one.
