Scottish Odyssey Tartan Stole

Main fabric is  a wool/polyester mix.

This stole has been designed to be worn without a chasuble, with embroidery covering the entire surface. 

The design is a single continuous line constructed in a such a way as to create spaces for the gold crosses.  There is a ring around each cross, picked out in a different shade of metallic thread.  At the top of each side, the knotwork changes into a spiral pattern of three interlinked spirals, representing the Holy Trinity.

The tartan (lining and appliqué) is Scottish Odyssey and the stitching is pale gold metallic thread. The gold crosses are gilded wool.  There is a gilt chain across the back neck to allow the stole to sit neatly across the back.

The fringe is handwoven to match the main fabric and the stitching.
