Glittering Snowscape Shawl by Stephen West knit on 3.5 mm in 5 colours of some Chinese 60% silk, 20% cashmere, 20% wool. Very nice and soft, but splits easily. Also burn tests to a hard molten bead. So probably not as advertised. Now to sew in the ends.
Once again we met wonderful people at our Pop Up!
Celebrity by association Terry, was so sweet to chat about her cousin Stephen!!

Stephen West’s Glittering Snowscapes shawl in green shades. Yarn is some Temu mix they claim to be 60% silk, 20% cashmere and 20% merino. Very soft though, but splits easily.

Clue 3 is complete! I’m a bit sad about it. Why? Because clue 4 is brioche and it’s hard so I’m going to do the garter stripe version instead which is a bit yawn 🥱

MusiKAL Shawl by Stephen West
It has a lot of fun techniques and color play. I loved the squiggles and the triangle stripes. There is no balance or cohesion. I would not knit this again.

I finished the first clue of the MKAL by Stephen West. This year called MusiKAL.
The premise is that I know it'll be a shawl, but not what it'll look like and I get a new clue once a week for four weeks.🧶

My most recent FO is the Flying Foxtail Blanket by #StephenWest (yarn is #KnitPicks Swish DK in Allspice and Bare.) I have NEVER done #brioche but it wasn’t hard once I got the hang of it and I love how squishy it felt. I’m proud of this blanket and myself for trying a new skill!#knitting #yarnlove
