This unique MKAL features what appears to be a pure white scarf. As soon as you step into the sunlight, the pattern of a Cherry Blossom themed dragon emerges! Recommended yarns for the pattern are white HiKoo Simplicity and HiKoo by skacel’s Abracadabra, which turns pink when exposed to UV light so that the pattern remains hidden and your scarf appears pure white until you step out into the sun! You can also mix and match colors to your preferences.

MKAL begins April 1st, when you purchase the pattern you will receive a pdf with yarn requirements and other basic pattern information. Please join us in the Epic Knits group official MKAL thread for chatting and prize information.

Materials
UV flashlight or blacklight for working with Abracadabra (will turn yarn from white to pink). A small flashlight will work fine, something along the lines of this flashlight seems to work great.
