One of the most popular knits of 2021 was undoubtedly the Westknits Mystery-Knit-Along Shawlography shawl.
Having followed along with the MKAL Ravelry chatter over the last couple of years, and in the midst of a huge shop build 😅, I couldn’t resist casting on.
With lots of colour inspiration shared by Westknits devotees over on the Ravelry threads, I had fun playing around with colour palettes and texture.
I settled on a somewhat conservative palette using West Yorkshire Spinner’s Exquisite 4 Ply, a luxurious blend of Falkland Merino and silk.
Always a statement and unmistakably Stephen West, the MKAL was colourful and adventurous, incorporating many different techniques.
I’d highly recommend any of the Westknits MKAL shawls for all the curious knitters looking for an engaging and skill building knit.
Enjoy!
