Mimic

Mimic is a trapezoid shaped shawl made of simple sections of moss stitch and V stitches. It's easy enough to work on in front of the TV, but takes an interesting turn about halfway through to keep you hooked and to keep things moving. As written, there are two sizes to choose from. The DK weight option makes a warm and snuggly wrap (or wide wrap-able scarf) perfect for brisk winters. The Fingering weight option makes a light and airy shoulder wrap for cool summer evenings or those chilly fall days. The pattern is also incredibly easy to modify to your desired size or to accommodate the amount of yarn that you have available and includes instructions for doing so. ***Details*** US Crochet Terms Skill level: easy, but you'll want to be confident about finding your first and last stitches and chain spaces easily. ***DK weight option*** Finished size before blocking: 17.5 x 77 inches at widest and longest points Yarn: Stylecraft Batik Swirl, 2 cakes, sample made in Blue Ocean colorway Hook: 4.5mm or size needed to obtain gauge Gauge: About 3.5 inches from magic circle to corner after row 13; each V/moss st section measured at same point from there on out about 3.5 inches each ***Fingering weight option*** Finished size before blocking: 21 x 70 inches at widest and longest points Yarn: Scheepjes Whirl, 1 cake, sample made in Strawberries & Scream colorway Hook: 3.75mm or size needed to obtain gauge Gauge: About 3 inches from magic circle to corner after row 13; each V/moss st section measured at same point from there on out about 3 inches each <hr> Visit me, Polly Plum, get help or support, and stay up to date on new patterns by: [checking out my website][2], everytrickonthehook, for things like tutorials and free patterns; liking [Every Trick on the Hook on Facebook][3]; following [polly_plum_crochet on instagram][4]; visiting [Polly’s Place on Ravelry][5]; or get lots of help and support from the Facebook group, [Polly Plum Pattern Posse][6].
