Crochet version
A three-circuit labyrinth in eyelets. For those days when you're not sure you'll ever reach your goal.
Materials
Worsted weight cotton (sample was made with Lion Cotton in white), about 60 yds
Needles that give you a gauge of 5 st/in. This is if you want to make a standard 9" cloth. If not, use needles that give you a fabric you like with the yarn you use. (The sample was made using US4/3.5mm.)
Yarn needle for weaving in ends
Optional: Celtic Knot Soap from Eclectic Lady
Please note:
- The graph includes all rows.
- There are two "rest" rows between each eyelet row.
