    WOW - I love this shawl so much!! It's giving me Art Deco feels. Looks like a really good size too, with your added border! Your colors just really show this pattern off so well!! 👏👏👏

      Thank you! It did turn out a great, large, size. I couldn’t have picked better colors even jf i had known the design beforehand.

    It turned out so great. You have one of my favourite colour combinations this year. Great to find your channel in the process too.

    Yours Gogodynamo is magnificent. All versions are so beautiful and inspiring. I finished mine yesterday. I loved knitting it because of its construction, the variety of stitches and textures. It was my first Mkal and not the last. Well done.

      Thank you! You’re so welcome. Hopefully something I said or showed will help you in your process. I’ve heard a lot of people saying they will knit this design after seeing it. It might be the best one yet!

    I love that you put in the extra large border, and used beautiful yet budget friendly yarn. It came out super pretty. I just started mine, a month late. On a whim, I'm using worsted, just to see how big it turns out, ha.

    I am on clue 2, first brioche section. I made a mistake that I fixed, thanks to the video you posted about fixing brioche mistakes. I added a third color held with mohair for my cc in this section. My first time using mohair and I love it. However, I have to be careful not to miss knitting the mohair strand along with the regular yarn. This may be my favorite SW shawl yet.

      @shaunastitches  28 днів тому

      Isn’t it funny that we can spend so much time knitting but then when it comes to blocking, or the little finishing touches, it can really derail our progress?

    • @elsielanor
      @elsielanor 28 днів тому

      ⁠​⁠@@shaunastitchesI will be blocking soon. Just finished knitting it this afternoon and trying to figure out where I’m gonna lay it out since it’s so big,
      I have blocking mats, but I still have to put them somewhere. lol !

    Mine will take a while, but I will get there. The biggest thing I would like to change is the triangles. I just don't love them, but I do like the slip stitch triangles, so I may try to size them up and use that instead.

    • @shaunastitches
      @shaunastitches  27 днів тому

      Oh that could look good! My only concern would be that the slip stitch triangles don’t have a lot of stretch and the short row wedge triangles do since they are in garter. That could affect how it lays.

    Your shawl looks great. Mine turned out to be Christmas colours. Go and look at Kelly’s if you haven’t seen it Row Row and Kades. She used gradient advent leftovers with ecru it’s stunning 😍

  • @elsielanor

    I did the ripple border with the suggested 3 MC stripes.
    I felt it was long enough with that many and I didn’t want to do 4 as I always feel it should be an odd number so I would’ve had to do five and wasn’t sure if I’d have enough yarn.

    • @shaunastitches
      @shaunastitches  28 днів тому +1

      I’m sure it looks beautiful! The nice thing about that border is that it’s easy to customize it to the yarn amount you had left and it looks good with just a few, or a few extra 🤣

    Your shawl is very beautyfull ❤️I follow you with pleasure from DK - I have finished clue 3, but I make a mistake in one of the triangels ending op with a wrong nummer of stiches at last. ( why did’nt I place markers at the beginning😮) . I think I have to unravel and knit it again😅. Kind regards Annette

    • @shaunastitches
      @shaunastitches  27 днів тому

      Oh no 😢 I’m so sorry you have to rip and redo it. If you are just off a stitch or two you could just add a few extra increases and call it good, but I’m guessing that isn’t the case. Making sure I did enough rows in that section was tough.

  • @jennenns654
    @jennenns654 26 днів тому

    I finished mine. I made a few mistakes which I didn't realize until after that have me a bit upset about. I wasn't able to do the border because I ran out of yardage on my yarn but the shawl is plenty big enough.

    • @shaunastitches
      @shaunastitches  26 днів тому

      Oh no 😢 maybe you can go back and duplicate stitch or something to fix it? I often find that in a project that big, mistakes aren’t all that visible. I’m sure it’s still beautiful and warm!

    I wonder of anyone has done an episode about the mystery knits and the average time it takes to complete each one. I have never dons these shawls but has done 3 different westknit shawls. I love this graphic look and am tempted to make this one!

    • @shaunastitches
      @shaunastitches  27 днів тому +1

      That would be interesting to know. On one hand I feel like I knit more during the MKAL because I’m so motivated to get the color done before the next one comes out. But, I usually finish with at least a couple days to spare so I could get even more knitting done, but I might not have the motivation.
