new! Hong Kong Stole

Hong Kong Stole (Cashmere)
Here’s a new twist to a basic stole design. Knit in sumptuous cashmere, we worked simple garter stitch combinations to define the rectangle with a collar and bottom edge, and garter stitch ties with openings so one front tie can slip into the other front tie to keep the stole in place. We tested lots of yarns to find the best for drape and softness this design needs to hug the body. This yummy cashmere stole is knit with Jade Sapphire’s 100% 8-ply cashmere. A Knittingbag design.
