Juno Regina Stole & Wrap

Juno Regina Stole & Wrap

Description: Juno is the mother goddess of Roman mythology, and Juno Regina is Juno as queen of the Gods. The echoing diamond shapes within each motif inspired the elongated diamond shape of the stole. The pointed ends of this piece are organic and simple to work, while still creating an interesting line in the finished product. This pattern was originally published as the Stole version only with no text translations of charts in Knitty.com's Fall 2007 issue and is still available for free in the archives there.
