Fall is time for Stephen West’s yearly Mystery Knit Along (MKAL)! This year’s installation is called Go, Go, Dynamo, and it calls for two colors of Fingering Yarn, 200g (2 skeins) each. Optionally you can also add 25g of Mohari yarn for the “Mohair Dare”.

Below I’ve put together some yarn combinations that I think would work great for this year’s MKAL!

The most important things to know about the Go Go Dynamo MKAL:

It is a mystery knitting pattern, and a new part of the pattern will be released every Thursday in October
The finished object will be a shawl
Steven recommends yarn in two contrasting colors
Total yarn amounts needed: 400g (200g per color)
You need to buy the pattern separately from Wesknits, see: Go Go Dynamo: Westknits MKAL 2024 (Ravelry)
