Instruction. First half: Using a Provisional Cast on method, cast on 123 sts for version of stole 6

bells width, or cast on 103 sts for 5 bells width, or cast on 83 sts for 4 bells width.

Purl 1 row.

Work A and B set-up rows of chart 1 once (= a total of 4 rows).

Then repeat rows 1-32 of chart 1 4 times.

Then work chart 2 rows 1-64 once.

Then work chart 3 rows 65-90 once. Don’t cut the yarn.

Cast off is done by crocheting. Take a crochet hook suitable for your yarn and cast off stitches by

crocheting as follows: single crochet 2 stitches together, chain 5, *single crochet next 3 stitches

together, chain 5, single crochet into the next stitch, chain 5 *

repeat *-* till there are 5 sts left on the left hand needle, single crochet next 3 stitches together,

chain 5, single crochet into the last 2 stitches. Cut the yarn.

Second half: Remove the crocheted chain by untying the end and gently unraveling the whole

chain and put the live stitches on a needle. Now you are ready to work in the opposite direction

of previous work. Join yarn with RS facing and work as for first half beginning from .

Finishing. Soak your lace creation in warm water for approx. 15-20 minutes, use a mild soap if

desired. Rinse and squeeze out gently to remove excess water. Lay it flat on a large surface. Block

stole to open up lace pattern. Let the stole dry completely before unpinning it. Weave in all ends.
