Not Having A Clue

Clue 1 is the striped section, clue 2 is the orange section and clue 3 is the purple section. One clue left of the shawl.
This is the funny thing. Normally I would not have knitted a garment I have not seen in advance.

Clue 1.
But I would not have knitted this if I had seen it.

Too much partial knitting.

But since I had no clue this is actually good. Just as life itself - there are so many things we would have been afraid of doing if we had known the future.

Well back to the Mystery Shawl KAL. I have done three clues and only have one left.

But I still have a problem finding out how this shawl is going to be. I hope for a wide wingspan and a long shape. You can read about the yarn and the project on my Ravelry page.

It was a quick knit this time all though there are 619 stitches on the needle with the purple color. All together there are 1004 stitches.

Clue 2.
Since there are so many stitches, a lot of short rows and yarn overs it would soon be a nightmare to keep track of the stitch count.

But Pauline on Ravelry is so generous that she has done the math and made charts for the stitch count on clue two and three.

That saved me - cause if I had to unravel any of this I think I would have given up.

Last clue on friday - and I can not wait to see this finished.

  8. Jeg vil også have mere vingefang... men da det ikke dukkede op i sidste clue, er jeg ved at opfinde det selv.. desværre er jeg bange for ikke at have garn nok. Men det er der vel råd for :)

    1. Man får jo altid fat i mer garn. Men i clue4 ser vi jo at det bliver ret langt og smalt. Det bliver flot!!
