This pattern is a “mystery” pattern. You will receive this pattern gradually, in four parts.

You will receive the first clue on Sunday, April 19, the second on April 26, the third on May 3, and the fourth on May 10.

If you’re purchasing the pattern now, there are already Clue 1 and Clue 2 available and at the end of Clue 1 there are photos of the individual sections and the first part as a whole, so spoiler alert :)

On page 2 of the pattern, you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions.

Sizes

Finished Measurements
They will be published only after the last clue is published, as they would reveal the shape of the shawl.

Gauge
25 sts & 30 rows = 10 × 10 cm / 4 × 4 in on 3.5 mm (US 4) needles in stockinette stitch, worked flat, washed and blocked. Try to match the recommended stitch gauge to avoid running out of yarn (although a small buffer is included in the yardage).
Stitch gauge is more important in this pattern; row gauge is less critical.

Note: I recommend using Color C for swatching.

Needles
3.50 mm (US 4) circular, 80–100 cm (32–40 in) cable
