From Designer Stephanie Lotven:

Every day I hear aboutescalatingconflict,escalatingfear,escalating tensions. I am tired of hearing about negative escalation. This shawl was designed in the spirit of positivity. I want escalatingFREEDOM, escalatingCREATIVITY, escalatingJOY! This shawl is my happy place: a bold palette, graphic lines, relaxing garter stitch, and just enough lace to keep things interesting. I hope it brings you a bit of escalating happiness!
