This year features the Sol Shawl MKAL, a mystery knit-along where the design unfolds over three weekly clues. You can choose between DK or fingering weight yarn, offering plenty of opportunities to experiment with color. *When designing this piece, I imagined sitting by a fire, perhaps a summer campfire in the Northern Hemisphere or a cosy hearth during the Southern Hemisphere winter, with an engaging knitting project to savor. The resulting shawl is versatile for any season, whether worn around the shoulders or as a kerchief on your next adventure.* Join the fun in the dedicated MKAL & pre-KAL threads in [Ambah’s Ravelry group][3], and via #SOLshawlMKAL2026 **DATES** **Cover Page + Materials list:** May 19 **CLUE 1:** June 19 **CLUE 2:** June 26 **CLUE 3:** July 3 **FO ENTRIES & PRIZE DRAW:** Post in the Ravelry FO thread by August 1 to be entered into the August 5 prize draw. **FINAL UPDATE:** The pattern will be consolidated into a single PDF and a final update will be sent out with the final version. **PATTERN DETAILS** The techniques are suitable for an advanced beginner, with video tutorials to accompany each clue. **COLOUR NOTES** For the most effective result choose a strongly contrasting C1 and C2. A colour change yarn may be used for either C1 or C2. A 5 x 20 g fingering weight mini-skein set, ideally in a fade arrangement, would also work well as a C1 option for the fingering weight version, with a highly contrasting 6th mini-skein for C2.
