Baltic Flowers MKAL is a mystery knit along that is run primary in my Instagram account niinas.knit.scene on 20.8-16.9.2022.
I will publish the instructions here also, but I cannot guarantee that they will be here the same day as in my Instagram. Later the complete pattern will be published here also.

This pattern is released as a series of 11 clues on the following dates:

Clue 1: August 20, 2022
Clue 2: August 23
Clue 3: August 26
Clue 4: August 27
Clue 5: August 30
Clue 6: September 1
Clue 7: September 4
Clue 8: September 8

Clue 10: September 13
Clue 11 and final pattern: September 16

Size:
37-38 (39-40) 41-42 (43-44)

Size depends on gauge. Gauge used to make these instructions is 10x10cm = 32 sts, 35 rows. If your gauge differs remarkably, consider using different needle size.
The circumference of leg is approximately 20-21 (23-24) 25-26 (27-28) cm and circumference of foot 17-18 (20-21) 22-23 (24-25) cm. Length of the leg is about 28 cm.

Yarn:
Filcolana Arwetta Classic:
MC 80g 977 Marzipan
CC1 25g 198 Tangerine
CC2 15g 973 Nougat

Or other yarn the same thickness (210 m/ 50 g). If you choose
different colors, make sure, that the contrast colors differ enough from main color. Contrast colors don’t need to stand out from each other.
One way to ensure that the pattern is visible, is to take picture from yarns you would like to use, turn picture into black and white. If you see the difference, there is a good chance that the pattern stands out just fine. To make sure, knit a test piece.

Needles:
2,5mm – 3,0mm or size required to get gauge right

You also need:
Blunt sewing needle
Stitch markers

Other notes:
The socks are worked from the cuff to toe, the beginning of the round is behind the leg and on the sole.
The instructions are made for knitting with 4 double pointed needles.

Hope You enjoy taking part in my mystery knit along!

I love taking part in mystery knit alongs! When Baltic Flowers -pattern started to build up, I realized that it would be great for knit along, and even better, for mystery knit along! Why I like mystery knit alongs so much (besides knitting together), is the guessing what would come next, and then seeing something completely different from what I thought, and then liking it even better. I hope this knit along gives You just those sensations.

When you post your work on social media, please use #BalticFlowersMKAL because I would love to see your version of my design!

I wish you mysterious and surprising knitting moments!
