This year long blanket MAL will include a true crime murder mystery each month!  We will be knitting the Jelly Roll Blanket by Kay F Jones or crocheting the Hexie Dreams Afghan by Sass & Stitch Crochet. We will be using the hashtag

#Letthemysteryunravelmal2025 on Instagram. Colors will be a mash up of variegated, tonal, and speckled techniques with a wide variety of colors- bright pops of color, pastel, and neutrals- think scrappy! Get 10% off if you buy the whole year up front!

We will be completing pieces of the blanket each month as we uncover clues of the crime! This MAL makes the bigger project goals of a blanket/throw an easy way to break down small bits throughout the year to make it amazingly easy to finish and stay on task completing your blanket! The mysteries each month keep it super fun and interesting to get to the next "clue." Each box comes with fifteen 10g mini skeins with true crime clues and storytelling included along the way! Add on charms to make this box even more special.
if you don't specify knit or crochet- default is knit

Monthly prizes available for those that finish knitting or crocheting 15 case files each month:
A colorway or sock set of your choice from the shop and a SamsTinyTrinket from the shop!

RULES for the KAL:

Each mini skein is a “case file”- post your finished monthly knitted or crocheted blanket pieces in a photo on instagram using the hashtag #Letthemysteryunravelmal2025 (Do not worry about revealing anything the case files say online- these are not a mystery, just fun! Winning prizes is solely based on knitting or crocheting the 15 chevrons during the month each month. It is not a race- If you get all 15 knitted or crocheted in a given month and you post using the hashtag, you are entered for the monthly prize (this is not the same as the grand prize) it is in addition to grand prizes at the end. 

You must finish and block the blanket to be entered for grand prizes by OCTOBER 1, 2026.
