festive mystery knitalong
general info
The mystery knitalong will be hosted by Joona Höri and me during the month of December.
We will be knitting a new, secret pattern designed by Joona over the month of December. There will be four pattern clues that we will email your way each weekend in December so you can have a finished pair of socks for the holidays.
pattern
The pattern is a cabled sock pattern called "Kuura Socks" that was exclusively designed for the MKAL. Every clue will feature a new texture so there are not repeats from one clue to another.
The sock pattern comes in two sizes for the foot circumference and is adjustable in length. It is knitted from the cuff to the toe.
The skill level is more intermediate due to the different cabling techniques. However, the textures flow nicely and feel very natural and intuitive to knit. The cables come charted only.
The pattern will also be available individually on my website (check the timings in the timing section).
yarn info + boxes
We will have dedicated yarn boxes for the MKAL available and they are launching this Friday, 8th of November at 8pm CET. The boxes contain the original yarn colour that the Kuura Socks were designed in, an exclusive pair of stitch markers and a little hand-poured scented tealight aswell as the pattern for the MKAL.

how to + clue admin
Just a few last info bits here:
The pattern will be available individually and as part of the box. Both will be available on my website and I'll put a date here once you can start buying the individual pattern.
Clues will be sent via email every weekend in December. If you purchase the box now, the pattern clues will also be coming your way via email after November 29th.
If you purchase the pattern while the MKAL is running already, you will automatically receive the instructions with all clues that have been published until then.
