Product Description

It's MKAL Time!

Nothing marks the beginning of winter knits season more than the announcement of Stephen West's annual mystery knit-a-long.

Join knitters across the globe throughout the the month of October as the shawl pattern is revealed week-by-week. Follow along with each clue and transform your yarn bundle into into something FABULOUS!

As a team we couldn't resist pulling different options from the shelves and our favourite combos are listed here for you to choose from.

These kits are for the yarn only - you will need to purchase the MKAL Pattern separately from the Westknits Ravelry shop or on the Westknits Website. You will then receive week-by-week mystery updates direct to your email.

Each Yarn Bundle Includes:

400g of yarn in total of the 4 colours photographed.

Not Included (but also required):

Geogradient pattern
3.5mm (US4) 100cm circular needle
Tapestry needle
Stitch markers

The cast on date is Thursday the 6th of October and once you purchase the pattern you will receive a PDF full of MKAL details, including how to swatch for the best colour placement in your project.

What is a MKAL?

An MKAL is a Mystery Knit-A-Long and Stephen West is famous for creating the most spectacular shawls for each of these mystery events. Every autumn knitters around the world knit a shawl based on a new "clue" (a fresh section of the pattern) that is released every Friday.

There is a very active Ravelry group for MKAL members, with loads of support on hand and always someone to cheer you on. Stephen will also have great tutorials for any tricky bits.

How do I sign up?

Visit the Westknits Ravelry store or you can purchase the pattern from Westknits website We don't include the pattern with the kits as you will need to sign up with your email address so you can receive the new section instructions each Friday. Once you purchase the pattern you will received a PDF with lots of information about the MKAL.

Have you seen the finished shawl?

We wish! We don't get to see the finished shawl but we have chosen the kits shades based on the information given in the pattern PDF.

What are the key dates?

Clue 1 - Thursday 5th October.
Clue 2 - Thursday 12th October.
Clue 3 - Thursday 19th October
Clue 4 - Thursday 26th October.

Geogradient Mystery Knit Along - Stephen West - Fabulous

This mystery knit a long has been incredible. The tutorials on YouTube are fantastic and you learn so much. There are lots of customizations available. You can add color pops or mohair dares or beads. You can modify the pattern. I am doing his painting bricks shawl spiked edging instead of the Dib Stitch that he is using but all the different stitches are really fun. I imagine that over 10,000 people are doing this MKAL as there are over 6,000 sign-ups on ravelry alone. I love Stephen West patterns and they come with such support and creativity - Lots and lots of fun.

Pictures are from clue 1 and 2. I am now working on clue 3 and there is a final clue 4.
