Mystery Stole 3

Yep, it is finally done!

KnitPicks Gloss in Black
Size 3 Addi Lace needles
Size 6 glass seed beads in various greens and blues
I beaded all the flowers across the back - I needed more sparkly!

Left Side:


Back:

Right side:


Wingspan:



It needs better blocking, but until I get blocking wires, it looks ok. The edges curl in a bit and the back/wing connection needs to look better.
Thanks Melanie of Pink Lemon Twist for this great project!

Wow, black is a great color for a stole. Mine is beige, I used stash. Very pretty and I love the beads in the paw prints on the back.

Thanks so much for the nice comments!

I wear a lot of black, so I really like the color and I think it will get a lot of use.

I love the way the fingering-weight yarn makes it look so cushy and rich. Gorgeous!

I love it!! I don't have patience or time for something so intricate, and I am always in awe of people who can complete such projects.
