Sometimes you have an outfit that just needs a bit of lifting up, brightening it and bringing a bit of jollification to proceedings.

Some months ago I was invited to a wedding and I noticed that many of the female guests had a light and lacey wrap to add a bit of glam to their daytime outfit - and as a knitter I felt a little embarrassed that I had nothing similar in my wardrobe.

Then I came across this fabulous Lyocell blend from West Yorkshire Spinners and couldn’t wait to see how it would knit up into a soft, drapey stole.

Perfect for when the next wedding invitation rolls around.
