ALL ABOARD!

The Goff Place Mystery shawl is inspired by the action of Allingham’s brilliant thriller, Hide my Eyes, which fans out across London, criss-crossing the city from the Harrow Road and West End Theatre district to the East End industrial dockside, involving several journeys by bus. There are four clues, named for four different characters, and, following the plot and geography of the novel, each clue takes the shawl in a different (and somewhat mysterious) direction, exploring different construction methods and techniques. The shawl uses five different shades of fingering weight yarn, and each clue involves all of these five shades.
