Colorful Keepsake Shawl
I decided to plan a mystery knit a long because a friend and I couldn’t for the life of us figure out the best thing to knit with a skein of Chappy Yarn I got her and I as a souvenir while on my trip to HK in 2019. She’s never knit a shawl and since she said her first shawl had to be one of my designs the Colorful Keepsake MKAL was born! We wanted to play into the colorway, of so many colors present in one skein. Since we wanted to incorporate this skein of yarn in the design, it would be a visual keepsake of the yarn and my trip to a part of the world my parents are from. It’ll be a tangible reminder of brighter and more colorful times and adventures to be cherished forever.
Now, released as a complete pattern after the mystery knit along!
