As light, as light as can be, the Splash of Sunshine shawl echoes two motifs from the Funston shawl, my 2025 mystery.

It’s a satisfyingly simple pattern, and a great introduction to lace knitted in mohair and silk. The top uses a T increase to present a beautiful smooth triangle, and the lace charts (with written instructions also included) are very straightforward.

This shawl begins a guided journey through the motifs and techniques in Funston, but broken down into smaller projects so that each shawl is a manageable step and beautiful project on its own. Put together, they build the skills and confidence for the larger and more complex Funston shawl. And if you have already knit the Funston shawl? You will love these!

About My Project:
Welcome to the first year of my Mystery Path bundle series. During my 2025 mystery shawl (Funston), I realized that a lot of knitters still felt a bit overwhelmed by lace, even with the lives and how-to videos. So I decided to break the shawl up into smaller pieces, and The Mystery Path was born.

This is a guided journey through the motifs and techniques in Funston, but broken down into smaller projects so that each shawl is a manageable step and beautiful project on its own. Put together, they build the skills and confidence for the larger and more complex Funston shawl. And even if you have already knit the Funston shawl? You will love these relaxing smaller projects!

All in all, there will be three shawl patterns plus a small bonus pattern in the bundle. And of course, it’s a mystery what they’ll look like! The remaining patterns for this eBook will be delivered to subscribers by the end of December, 2025. There is no specific delivery time for each pattern. All patterns will have charts and written instructions where needed. All patterns (except the bonus pattern) will be available to purchase separately!
