Lace: Intentionally putting holes in your knitting. It can be as complex as the vintage doilies that I love to knit, or as simple as a row of eyelets. This center out, rectangular stole, starts with a provisional cast on and meditative columns of eyelets surrounded by stylized leaves, with just a touch of more complex lace (and a few nupps) on the ends. Knit in a laceweight silk this is the perfect piece to dress up a pair of jeans and a t-shirt on a warm summer’s day, or with a fancy dress for a night on the town.
