Biltmore

If you're seeking to create a stunning accessory that marries elegance and creativity, the Biltmore rectangular stole pattern is perfect for you. While I initially envisioned a geometric design with added texture during my knitting journey, it evolved into something uniquely beautiful, and I can't wait to share it with you! After numerous experiments of knitting and ripping back to my idea, this design emerged, embodying a distinct charm that I hadn't anticipated. It was only upon completing this stole that I stumbled upon a photo of the Biltmore Estate and was struck by the architectural angles in its roofline. That's when I knew I had found the perfect name for my creation: Biltmore.

This exquisite Biltmore stole is crafted by knitting two symmetrical halves that are elegantly grafted together at the center for a seamless finish. The pattern is thoughtfully written in two sizes, allowing you to customize both the width and length to achieve your ideal stole dimensions. The small size, as outlined in the pattern, uses 200g of sock yarn, while the larger version requires 300g. You also have the option to explore using lace weight or even sport weight yarn, which provides a wonderful opportunity for creativity, but keep in mind that this may alter your finished size and drape. Embrace your creativity and let the Biltmore stole become an exquisite addition to your knitting repertoire, perfect for layering or gifting to a loved one!
