Knitting the 2013 Westknits Mystery Shawl really was an adventure, and without a doubt the weirdest shawl I've ever knit. It was fun, even though I don't think I will end up wearing this myself. In any case, I do give Stephen West maximum points for originality and creativity of design.
I used Wollmeise Pure in colorways Wolke, Zarte Knospe and Versuchskaninchen (the green is one of my favorite colors ever). In hindsight, seeing other people's color combinations, I think I would have enjoyed knitting this with neutral colors as A and B, like light and dark grey, and then something bright and saturated for color C, like orange. But I'm not unhappy with this finished item, either.

I really like your color choices on this project. I think it really must be an adventure doing a Stephen West mystery knit. I am not sure I am brave enough.
ReplyDeleteHeh heh, I find them always fun to take part in, even if you don't end up wearing the shawl yourself.
