This is another beautiful stole/wrap.  Another one to be added to me To Do list.  This issue of Interweave Crochet is equally as fabulous as the Fall Issue.  There's not enough hours in a day for all the things I want to make.

I really want to make this stole. I'm a bit intimidated by the long chain. I'm afraid it will get twisted with such a fine yarn. I'm going to try it with a foundation chain of single crochet stitches.

BarbaraR@6- don't be afraid of the beginning chain.  I found it easy to see the right side of my chain stitches - and as usual, that first row seems to take forever!  Good for you if you have mastered the foundation single crochet!  Keep me posted on your progress.
