Just Breathe is a lovely small shawl, the perfect size for draping around your shoulders to ward off summer air conditioning!

This is #4 in our Brain Game series. The perfect knits to take to the beach, on a long car ride, to knit night, or, for those of us with disorders that affect our brains but still want to knit something fabulous, which is how they came about to begin with!

Our KAL will begin on May 27th.

Kits from Miss Babs are available there: https://www.missbabs.com/collections/brain-games-4-sets

Materials:
This is where the fun begins!

All yarn is fingering weight and there are several options for what you can use!

Option 1: A lovely 6 toe 2-ply kit from Miss Babs: https://www.missbabs.com/collections/brain-games-4-sets

Option 2: At least 10 mini skeins of not less than 80 yds each.

Option 3: Stash Busting! We have listed the amounts needed for each section of the pattern in the Welcome Letter so you can dig through your leftover fingering lovelies.

NOTE: No, you can not get by with less yardage than listed above or in the Welcome Letter!!!

Other Things:
US Size 6 circular 16” & 32” needles
Scissors (yes, you really do need these!)
Markers
A Scale - weighing your yarns before and after you use them is crucial
A pen or pencil to keep track of how much your skeins weigh as we use them

And last but not least, the patience of a saint when you suddenly forget how to do garter stitch… yes, this is a real thing :smile:
