Knot Another Dead Body MKAL, pattern is T.O.M.B.
This mystery kal has just the right amount of adventure to keep you engaged and anticipating what’s next, balanced with rhythmic sts that allow you to have relaxing breaks. You have a fictional murder mystery to accompany your knitting, perfect combo right!?

You will have a choice of three final objects, infinity scarf, wrap, or shrug. You do not need to make a final decision until Clue 4. Clues and knitting for sections 1, 2 and 3 are the same no matter what you choose for your final object.
This is a one-piece object, you will only do a small amount of seaming if you choose to make a shrug, all other options and knitting are seamless.
Section 1 has written directions only, whereas sections 2-4 have both written directions and charts. At times, you will need to be able to follow both. “T.O.M.B.” is suitable for adverturous beginners to experienced knitters.
There are four sections to this kal with one released each week for 4 weeks. Each section with have a chapter of the murder mystery included.
