It has been a long time since I've posted about The Unique Sheep Mystery Knit Alongs. I started test knitting for the MKALs back in the fall of 2014, and it just seemed kind of strange to blog about the project so long after it was done. After The Once and Future King, in the summer of 2015, we did Wrinkle in Time in the Fall of 2015. The colorway is Silverlode on Luxe, with a little bit of gold for the bind off because I ran short of yarn.
And then Heidi in the Spring of 2016. This shawl ended up going home with my sister Virginia. She put it on with this elegant black dress and it just looked so great on her with her white hair. The colorway is Wild Blue Lupine on Selene.
Next we did The Velveteen Rabbit in the Fall of 2016. This was the first time I used a 12 skein set. These are pretty cool because the colors wrap - they are a circle and you can start anywhere in the circle and go in either direction. The colorway is Enchanted Garden on Luxe.
Here is the yarn in skeins.
Our most recent MKAL was The House at Pooh Corner. I used another 12 skein set - Realm of the Faeries on Nimbus.
Our next MKAL is
Beauty and the Beast. It begins on August 25. I have my yarn and will soon begin the test knit. I'm using Tulip Festival on Eos. I think the bold colorway will work well with the pattern construction.
