The Moon
The Moon pi shawl is part the Eclipse eBook.
The Moon pi shawl was designed with waves and the tides in mind. This shawl makes me so happy, the concept worked perfectly. The ripples that flow away from a place where a soft round pebble was dropped.
Knitting in circles is the most comforting thing for me. Knitting pi shawls has been a favourite thing since I started knitting lace. I hope you find knitting these pi shawl projects as comforting as I have!
These photos were shot while many wildfires were burning in BC. The fires caused the air to fill with smoke in Vancouver. The photos we took were coloured by this smoke, and appear much redder than they would have normally.
This shawl is actually dark moody charcoal grey.

Errata
Under the Charted Instructions under The Order of Things it says “Start on Row 1 and continue along until Row 122.
Once you’ve finished Row 122, head over to The
Finishing Up instructions.” this should read “Start on Row 1 and continue along until Row 183.Once you’ve finished Row 183, head over to The Finishing Up instructions.”
