Talea

Introducing the Talea Stole, a stunning knitting pattern inspired by the enchanting gown featured in the iconic painting "Soul of the Rose" by John William Waterhouse. This exquisite stole showcases an undulating trellis of roses that beautifully reflects the intricate fabric texture of the gown, while the fluttery ends of the stole mimic the elegant draping of the masterpiece. The ends of the stole flare slightly for a graceful silhouette, and are elegantly weighted with a zigzag of sparkling beads, adding both brilliance and lovely drape to your finished piece.

This versatile pattern allows you to create the Talea Stole to any length, maximizing yarn usage and ensuring a perfect fit for any occasion. The second end of the stole is cast on separately and expertly grafted to the body of the shawl, creating a seamless and polished finish. Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting out, this delightful pattern promises a rewarding knitting experience.

For this stunning project, you will need approximately 25g of size 8 beads—our sample used 736 beads to achieve its dazzling look. Beads can be easily placed using the crochet hook method, making it accessible for knitters of all skill levels.

The Talea Stole pattern comes with both comprehensive written instructions and detailed charts, ensuring that you can follow along with ease. Whether you want to showcase this beautiful stole as a statement piece for special events or as a cozy wrap for everyday wear, the Talea Stole is the perfect addition to your knitting collection.
