I'm quite excited to be the next stop on the Doomvember blog tour. What's Doomvember, you ask? We have a blog tour going for all the patterns in the upcoming book, Doomsday Knits! The book is published by Cooperative Press and my pattern is the Wayfarer shawl.
It's a triangle shawl but knit up in kind of an unexpected way. You knit the two halves of the triangle separately and then bring them together with ribbon, cord, or whatever else you can find after you survived the apocalypse. You can find my shawl in the "Wasteland Vagabonds" section of the book.

The book is available for pre-order now on the Cooperative Press website. And, you can check out all the patterns on Ravelry (patterns are being added everyday from the book to Rav, so check it out often).
