This stole was given its name because the diamond-shaped stitch motifs, knit in traditional Shetland lace patterns, are reminiscent of the old Beatles song.

The main body of the piece is knit from one short side to the other. The edging is worked sideways and is knit onto the live stitches and stitches picked up from the small garter border around the body. As is tradition in Shetland lace knitting, the overall background stitch is garter stitch which leads to a fabric that looks almost the same on the right and wrong sides.

This pattern is both charted and written out.
