Knitted Riddles of the Yarn...

Hoang Nguyen

Amid the woolen mill shadows of Threadhaven, where knitters loop riddles into yarn and wool merchants bargain with threads of the unknown, knitter Lila tangles a clue with merchant Garrick, whose deals conceal a pattern of pilfered designs. Their yarn, looped in thread vows and bargain-kissed needles, untangles truth—or snarls in woolen knots of deceit. As they unravel through shadow-laced looms and clue-bound spools, tangled by yarn wardens and pattern rivals, Lila's knitting craft merges with Garrick's merchant cunning, unveiling a woolen legend of knitted revelation. When a snagged thread summons moth illusions, they must loop the clue to weave the end. In the riddle of knitted yarns, where every loop hints at solution and every bargain reveals a twist, their soft mystery becomes the pattern that binds the mill's secrets.
