Yavanna Kementari is the “lover of all things that grow in the earth…from the trees like towers in forests long ago to the moss upon stones or the small and secret things in the mould.” This simple and elegant lace stole features a lace motif that evokes the growing shoots of a tender vine and speaks to Yavanna’s love for all growing things. The lace pattern is adapted from one in Hitomi Shida’s Japanese Knitting Stitch Bible. It is an easy-to-memorize, 12-row repeat that makes for meditative knitting. Drape yourself in subtle elegance with the Kementari Stole. ConstructionThe Kementari stole begins at one end with an i-cord cast-on and is worked straight in a 12-row lace pattern repeat before ending with an i-cord bind-off. The lace pattern gives the edges a scalloped shape that can be accentuated with blocking.
