Eye Candy Friday | Stole 2.0.
Oh my, y’all. The seemingly-endless stockinette finally came to an end yesterday morning. After a nice soak and an overnight dry on the floor, it’s ready to share. I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. the colors pop! (even on a cloudy day)
the drape.
that subtle alpaca halo.
and the size. It blocked to about 86″x23″, which gives me options for how to wear it.
I thought I was adding length and width (see all my notes on Ravelry here), but I’m glad it ended up just being length; it doesn’t need to be any wider.
I predict it’s going to get a lot of wear on our trip!
Happy Friday and have a wonderful weekend!

Simply beautiful! The colors really do pop even more than before blocking. You have great color sense; I never would have thought to put those colors together, but they work wonderfully and I'm sure you'll wear it well (and often)!

Fabulous! The colors are so beautiful (like Bonny, I would not have thought to use them together. I love the little halo effect. It will go so well with everything from jeans to a little black dress. Congratulations on a great finish!!
