Before Ravelry even existed, designer Anna Dalvi was running mystery knitalongs (KALs) for her gorgeous lace shawls on Yahoo groups. Dalvi's skill at translating natural and mythical inspirations into stunning lace creations drew more than 7,000 knitters to her KALs.

Now, she has gathered all 14 of her wildly popular Mystic shawl designs into one book, stunningly photographed by Caro Sheridan. The book also includes photos of beautiful examples that other knitters created during the knitalongs, capturing the true community spirit of the KAL and the knitting world at large.

Mystic Shawls spans a wide variety of shapes and constructions, giving you rewarding knitting for years to come.

Join her in her journey…
