Choose each element of your mysterious trunk knitting adventure - make different kinds of shawls, cowls, scarves, dishcloths, kerchiefs, or go wild and make a bigger item like a top or a blanket, all in custom sizes, and any weight yarn (no gauge swatch needed).

Take an imaginary trip to an extra special zoo and knit accessories based on what you see there, starting by choosing between 5 different items to make, in any weight yarn. Then you’ll pick which habitat you want to explore (that’s your base stitch pattern - there are 5 choices), and which animals to visit there (each animal is a motif stitch pattern - there are 5 per habitat).

Choose each element of your day in the woods knitting adventure, starting with which path to take (that’s which item you’ll knit). Choose which tree to climb (each is a stitch pattern); then pick where you’ll go exploring next - the river, the camp, go for a hike, or swing from a vine? All of your choices will result in different designs, along with your pick of yarn(s), size, etc. All the choices are yours to make!
