The Call of the Sirens lace stole draws on the Greek myths about the Sirens. The Sirens’ calls could bewitch sailors to make them forget who they were and and where they were going. Often the Sirens caused them to forget to navigate their ships and the ships would be wrecked against the rocky shore.
The edging of the stole show the waves, followed by the rocky shoreline. The center portion of the stole represents the braided hair of the beautiful Sirens.

The stole is knit in Sappho I (in the I cannot work the loom colourway) from the Sanguine Gryphon – 850 yds per 3.5 oz. skein. The length is of course adjustable, but with one skein you get a stole which is approx. 75 cm x 197 cm (29.5″x 77.5″).

The pattern is available for purchase as a .pdf download at the Sanguine Gryphon site.
