The stole is nice and long so you can wrap it around you with ease.
As for the stats. The yarn is Morris Empire 2 ply in Midnight Blue and the needle size is 4.0mm.

A Winter Queen
I finally managed to finish my Summer Queen stole. This was a very interesting stole to knit. It's the first time that I have knitted a stole with a double edging. The main body of the stole is knitted with the yarn held double. When you get to the edging you place a life line in your last row of the main body (I left a KnitPicks cable in) and then drop one strand of the yarn and continue with one strand for the first edge. Once that edge is completed you pick up the stitches on the life line and knit the second edge.
The stole is nice and long so you can wrap it around you with ease.
