I am so excited to announce that the kits for this year's Westknits Mystery Knit Along are here! You can shop my kits at Stephen & Penelope here. This time it is all about Twists & Turns, so get your needles ready to begin the Westknits MKAL adventure. It's going to be the best shawl yet!
For the Twists & Turns pattern, you will need five skeins in three different colors of fingering weight yarn.
MC (main color) - 2 skeins (200g total)
CC (contrast color) - 2 skeins (200g total)
AC (accent color) - 1 skein (100g total)
This pattern knits up beautifully in solid, semi-solid, and lightly speckled yarn. We worked with so many amazing dyers this year and I can't wait for you to see all the stunning kits we have put together for you. From striking color pops to more subtle, nuanced palettes, you will find something you love. I curated all the beautiful kits at Stephen & Penelope to work perfectly with the Twists & Turns pattern and I am so excited to see all of the wonderful creations you knit with the kit of your choice! Which colour combination will you choose?
Don't forget to purchase my MKAL pattern on westknits.com or Ravelry. When you sign up by purchasing the pattern, you will receive an introductory pdf filled with all the information you need to know, like needle size, gauge, and helpful advice on the types of colours and contrast effects that work best for this design. You will receive the first clue on the 6th October, when the fun really begins and we can start knitting!
If you use Ravelry be sure to join the Ravelry group to discuss all things MKAL and feel inspired by everyone's colour choices. We love seeing all of your beautiful shawls in progress on Instagram, so don't forget to tag #TwistsAndTurnsShawl, #TwistsAndTurnsMKAL and #WestknitsMKAL2022 so that we can get inspired by everyone's progress.
