On the Mystery Stole Bandwagon
So I was browsing around Ravelry the other day when I was struck by all these lovely pictures of a stole in progress. It was the Mystery Stole 3. I saw that signups were closing in a few days so I hurried over and signed up, and immediately started knitting.
The instructions said that it was best worked in black or white, and I had some off-white alpaca/silk blend laceweight that would be just right. I hopped off to the craft store and picked up some beads, and off I went.
Yesterday, clue 2 was released (more of the pattern), and I just finished it today. Here's what it's looking like:
Anyone want to hazard a guess as to what the main motif on this end is supposed to be? Here's a closeup
Also, for posterity's sake, here's the photo I took at the end of clue 1. I didn't want to make a separate post for it too. It was also taken in better light so it looks white instead of blue :)

I feel so slow! I'm not even halfway done the first clue! O_O
It looks gorgeous, though! I'm looking forward to seeing all the MS3s finished.
It looks great! I'm halfway through Clue 1.
Greetings from the other side of the state. Your lace looks great--are you using reddish beads? It's a bit hard to tell in the photos. Now just to be patient and wait for the next clue, right?
Your shawl is beautiful! I am not even trying to guess the theme. I am just enjoying the process of creating.
BTW - I thought it was interesting that you shot the photo of clue 1 point up. It never occurred to me to shot mine that way.
