River Stole Along?

Riverstole

I know many of us are less than thrilled with Rowan 38. The one I just can't stop thinking about is this one -- the River Stole.

The pic is bad so I charted out the lace so I could get a good idea of what it was like -- and I like it even more! I know there are a lot of lace knitters out there. Is anyone interested in a River Stole Along? Let me know! If there's enough interest I'll create a Yahoo Group or a separate blog for us to follow along. I may even post the charted pattern so let me know if that's of interest.

BTW, I think this stole would be just as lovely in a fingering weight wool, and might make the knitting easier for those of you who don't like the mohair.

I would like to make River but I don't know when. I've got a lot of other knits in line right now.

Hi. I'm usually a lurker, but am interested in a KAL for this. I started it a few days ago in a light blue Douceur et Soie and just love the knitting of it!

How many skeins does it take Jody?

I will definitely River along with you, Jody! I bought my yarn already, have the pattern -- ready to go! Just say when!

Damn! So much lace, so little time. I would love to join, but I can't right now :-(.

The river stole is on my to-knit list. I would love a KAL!

My yarn arrived today and I chose my beads on Saturday. Can I play too?

I have also been thinking about working on this stole. The designer has a good track record. It would be great to see your chart - it's impossible to tell what it will look like from the photo.

I'd love to see the chart. Thanks!

I'm in! I've been thinking it would be a good first foray into beads....

I would love to join. I am working on butterfly right now and am loving it. I have never knit with beads is it difficult?

I've got a picture of mine on my blog (http://fragiletender.livejournal.com/) if you want to see what the pattern actually looks like. I've done three repeats so far. The pattern is actually a lot easier than it looks.
