Construction notes
Mystery.ding is a raglan sweater, created from the Frida Fuchs Advent Calendar 2021.Quite mysteriously, without knowing in advance what colors are hiding behind the doors, I had created a design that fits all color combinations. The model takes you into the color world of Beach and tells the story of Honey Ryder, the surfer girl from Berlin.
