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.
