Yet Another Mystery KAL - And Brown??

Hello on this Taco Thursday!

The good news is that I probably don't have a Casapinka obsession after all!

The bad news is that I have a MKAL (that's Mystery KAL!) obsession for items with multiple colors!

The latest one to bop me over the head is by Lisa K. Ross.  This was her project last year:


This is the Garden Variety shawl.  It's HUGE and COLORFUL!!  I think this year's, Just Beachy, will be similarly large and colorful.

It's called Coastline - isn't that the best???

Please stay safe, well, and cool!

From the author’s web site : "As usual, I am interested in the people, their interactions and the social effects that poisons have had, as well as the science. There is an exquisite beauty in the way tetrodotoxin is made harmless to its hosts, the way a wasp moth vomits over its mate, or the way a mongoose withstands the venom of the cobra. To me, these are things worth exploring, so I do. " In his book, Macinnis endeavors to describe poisonous compounds and their science, relate which historical figures are implicated in the use of these poisons, and document how these poisons are referred to literature. He then attempts to weave all of these aspects together. Macinnis does indeed attempt to cover aspects of science, people, and all the history inbetween, but he does not seem quite able to cover everything in a consistent, coherent way. I think there is just to
