I just found out that Stephen West is starting another Mystery Shawl in July! Do I have time for this? NO WAY! But my dear friend Rebecca, who always sucks me into these little projects, thinks we should do this! So, If you are interested in joining us, sign up to receive the weekly clues on Ravelry (cost for pattern $4.). The clues start to arrive on July 13 with 3 more coming on consecutive Fridays. We will meet the sat. after each clue arrives (July 14, 21, 28 and August 4) from 10-12. You do not need to come in on sat, but if you will contact Annette,(our Ravelry Queen) and let her know you are doing the shawl, we can post photos and keep track of our progress. (annette- is this okay with you?) I am waiting to hear from Mad Tosh about my shipment of the Tosh light. This will work wonderfully for the project. You will need 2 colors that contrast. Check on Ravelry to see some suggested colors. There is no cost for the sat group.
