The first scarf that won everyone’s hearts has been created by @knitting_bae
She created the scarf following all prompts wisely, and the colors and stitches were in rhythm.


The second scarf is the crochet version of this MMAL, created by @07amritpaul. Her choice of stitches and colors is so beautiful and eye-pleasing. The added pockets made her scarf stand out.

The Third scarf is the knitted scarf by @saviknits. Her choice of intricate lace and cable stitches made her scarf worth noticing. The idea of adding the lace edging deserves a round of applause.


The task was challenging and fun. We got to see so many beautiful scarves finished. So, we decided to feature all five finished scarves on our page and the website.

So, many many congratulations to @sonas-connect_to_crochet & @pragnachetan for successfully completing the MMAL ✨❤

Once again, Thank you to all who participated and made the project with us!!!

Mysterious Make Along – Prompt 1

Week 1 – Prompt one.

Now that you have registered, are you ready to begin??

So here we are…. drum roll please….. with our very first prompt!! Are you excited??

Grab your hooks and needles and your yarn and get started!!!

Choose your project.

Decide what type of make you want to begin with – either a scarf or a shawl.

For a scarf keep the width of your project at around 8 to 10 inches

For a shawl keep the width between 12 to 15 inches.

Based on your project you can start/cast on with the desired number of stitches or chains.

Knitting Prompt 1 – Group A:

Work on any ONE of the following stitches as per your choice of project.

1. Garter stitch:
Garter stitch uses only one stitch – the basic knit stitch. You knit each and every stitch on every row (right side and wrong side), simply stopping to turn your work over when you’re ready to begin a row anew.

2. Double Moss stitch:
Cast on an even number of stitches
Row 1 and 2: *K1, P1; repeat from * to end of row
Row 3 and 4: *P1, K1; repeat from * to end of row
Repeat Rows 1-4 for Moss Stitch flat

3. Moss stitch / seed stitch:
Cast On an Odd Number of Stitches
Your knitting pattern ( * K1, P1 * K1 ) is repeated on every row.

4. Rib stitch 2*2:
Cast On: number of stitches divisible by 4.
Row 1 (RS): (k2, p2) till the end of the row.
Row 2 (WS): (k2, p2) till the end of the row.
Repeat these two rows.

Crochet Prompt 1 – Group A:

Work on any ONE of the following stitches as per your choice of project.

1. Moss Stitch:
Ch an even number of sts.
Row 1: Sc in 4th ch from the hook, *ch 1, sk 1 ch, sc in next ch, repeat from * across.
Row 2: Ch 2, turn. Sc in the next ch-1 sp, *ch 1, sk 1 sc, sc in next ch-1 sp, repeat from * across.
Repeat row 2.

2. Extended Single crochet:
Insert your hook, YO and pull up a loop, YO and pull through one loop, YO and pull through remaining two loops

3. Herringbone hdc:
To make the HHDC stitch:

  • Yarn over, insert hook into next stitch and pull up a loop (3 loops on hook)
  • Pull first loop straight through the second (similar to a slip stitch)
  • Yarn over, pull through two remaining loops on hook.

In our first prompt, we have given multiple options for you to choose from. You can use any one stitch to work your first part. Now, work according to this prompt until we reveal our second prompt.

Reminder: be consistent with 4-5cm of knitting/crochet daily. By the end of week, you would have easily completed 20 -25 cm of your project!!

So you will enjoy the fun of revealing the second prompt.

Lets get started and All the best!
