Product Details

The pebbles and limestone shale of the Burnt Cape Ecological Reserve at the tip of the Great Northern Peninsula in Newfoundland, Canada, remind me of purl bumps on a field of stockinette stitch leading to this design utilizing Scottish Guernsey patterns.

This stole is knit using Bare Naked Wools ‘Ghillie Sock’, a 100% Cheviot wool yarn. These sheep produce a finely-crimped, hard-wearing wool, perfect for outerwear and socks - and for keeping warm in the arctic conditions of the ecological reserves when visiting the Great Northern Peninsula of Newfoundland. 

Gauge: 22.5 stitches and 37 rows to 4 inches (10 cm) in over Chart B, blocked

Yardage: 1,200 yards/1,098 meters of light fingering weight wool yarn that knits up to 7-7.5 sts/inch.

Skills Required:

  • Knitting and purling
  • Working with multiple charts
  • Blocking

Other Tools:

  • Stitch markers (6)
  • Glow line tape (to mark current row on charts/instructions).
  • Fine cotton thread in contrasting colour for life-lines
  • Tapestry needle
  • Blocking wires and pins
