This rectangular double-knit stole is inspired by the traditional Japanese Tatewaku (Rising Steam) pattern, in which the steam gently rises illustrating subtle curves. In Scandinavia, experiencing saunas and hot springs is revered and of supreme importance, fitting perfectly with the use of the rising steam
motif. This stole features a captivating interplay of 10 colors, using Herlig and Lascaux DK yarns in pairs, spanning the full spectrum
of colors. It showcases the remarkable versatility and beauty of these yarns. Additionally, the pattern uses 80% of the total yarn quantity, allowing you to create a matching skinny scarf using any remaining yarn. You can achieve this by reducing the number of chart repeats from 8 down to 2.
