Inspired by Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor, Miracles For Breakfast is a love letter to small wonders, fleeting moments, and the quiet magic found in unexpected places.

Five curated yarn sets in Hypnotic Yarn’s Plush Sock base have been put together specifically for this pattern, inspired by different moments in the world of Strange the Dreamer.

This generous shawl is as comfortable worn traditionally over the shoulders as it is wrapped around the neck or styled long and loose like a scarf.

Garter stripes, elongated stitches, and simple lace sections add texture and detail that’s engaging without demanding constant attention. The result is a project that feels relaxing and intuitive on the needles, yet finished with enough structure and movement to make it endlessly wearable.

This pattern is suitable for adventurous beginners. Skills required include knit and purl stitches, increases and decreases, changing colors, and completing a picot bind off.

This pattern uses 3 skeins of fingering weight yarn. Sample shown in Hypnotic Yarn Plush Sock (85% superwash merino / 15% nylon, 437 yds per 100 g) in Vintage Denim, Inkwell, and Dragon Fruit. When choosing colors, we suggest one light, one dark, and one bright to make each section pop. This pattern uses the majority of all three skeins — plan your yardage accordingly.
