Stolen Hours?

Lately I've been interested in stoles -- long rectangular pieces. I've been using Kim Salazar's Kureopatora's Snake pattern as my basis, on size 15 or 17 needles, just under or over 40 stitches wide.

Here is the latest:



That's a yardstick, so you can see that it is over 6 feet long.







I used two of my magic balls, alternating rows, for a random but organized look.



The edging was one of those tubular yarns, mean for ruffles. I did a couple of rounds of crochet, then attached the tubular yarn in a bind-off stitch.




I don't know why I am finding making these stoles so compelling, but I do. You'll be seeing several more here.
