Escape

The Escape shawl is a mindful and soothing project, full of calming repetitive stitches. The stitch pattern is so easy to memorize that you can use this pattern as a side project, grabbing it any moment you need *true crochet escape* without needing to remember where you stopped or looking up how to proceed. **The Escape shawl is perfect for you if you:** - Seek a completely mindless project to work on. - Want a side project to take a break from complex projects that require your full attention (this one doesn't!). - Would like to create a beautiful and easily adjustable wrap (you can make it as large as you desire). - Finally want to use those gorgeous variegated skeins sitting in your stash. **The design works with any color options. Simply choose the one that makes your heart sing!** - Solids and semi-solids; - Variegated colors; - Long color repeat colorways; - Multiple color options at once. You can use at least two colors: one for the background (single crochet ribbing rows) and another one (or many) for the two circle rows. Alternatively, you can use one color for every two rows, then switch. **MATERIALS** - Yarn: Malabrigo Sock; light fingering / 3 ply; 440 yd (402 m) per 100 g skein; 100% merino wool - Hook: U.S. E (3.5 mm) - Locking stitch marker - Yarn needle to weave in ends **YARDAGE** (2) 3 skeins in shade 723 Indonesia **GAUGE** Gauge is not crucial for this pattern.
