MKAL 2013 - COLOR CRAVING

Color Craving is Stephen's personal favorite mystery knit along because it broke all of the rules about how a shawl can be constructed. Three vivid colors highlight the unusual shawl shaping techniques with massive yarn overs and angular short rows. The final shape is a long drapey triangle framed with a playful picot bind off. Knitters around the world were mesmerized and stunned during this MKAL as they knit without having any clue what the final shawl would look like until they bound off. Westknits MKALs are all about surprising and challenging features that make you go, "Stephen wants me to do what?" There is always a beautiful shawl at the end of each knit along, but the process to get there is filled with exciting twists and turns.
