Depth Charge is a BLAST of a shawl! Get ready to blast your winter away with a fun to knit shawl and some epic color combos!

The shawl features certain elements in certain combinations, and with certain shapes! It’s a mystery KAL, so you never know what you’ll get! Especially since it’s a Josh MKAL (TM pending… LOL!)


SCHEDULE:
Starting on the 16th of January, you will receive a new piece of the pattern every Saturday until the mystery is revealed! Here’s the schedule for the clues:

Saturday Jan. 2nd - Friday 15th : Sign-ups for the MKAL run!
Saturday Jan. 16th : Clue 1 and the kick off!
Saturday Jan. 23rd: Clue 2!
Saturday Jan. 30th : Clue 3!
Saturday Feb. 6th : Clue 4!


You can also grab some pre-made kits from the 614KnitStudio and the Forbidden Woolery! Here are the three sets! You can grab them here from the website! You can also sign up for classes and join me for a MKAL Kick-Off party in PERSON! YES!!!

RULES AND INFO:

  • Each clue will be automatically be sent to you via Ravelry and will appear as a pattern update. To download the latest update, simply update the pattern in your library!

  • Share in-progress photos on Ravelry, but please use the mystery thumbnail photo or a photo of your un-knit yarn as the first photo on your project page to keep the mystery alive for those that do not wish to see it!

  • Also, as a courtesy to me, I would ask that you refrain from posting a photo with the pattern instructions. It is just to protect my design and I would really appreciate it! Thank you!

  • A discussion thread will be started in the geoknittrix designs group on Ravelry (http://www.ravelry.com/groups/geoknittrix-designs) for you to ask questions pertaining to the MKAL. There will also be a thread to post your in progress shots so you can share your project with everyone, chat with your fellow knitters, and see all those FAB projects as well!

  • Use #depthchargemkal and #geoknittrixdesigns for posts on Instagram and to share the excitement with others!
