Moongazing

As a little girl, I believed the moon followed us on our long car trips to the Jersey shore. In a nostalgic world without seat belts, I would lay in the back window of the station wagon, gazing up in wonder as the moon glided gracefully overhead, creating a sense of magic in our journeys.

Introducing the Moongazing Shawl—a stunning knitting pattern designed to be the perfect companion for those chilly nights spent gazing at the stars, whether you're by a beach bonfire or enjoying a delightful rustic farm-to-table dinner.

This exquisite shawl is crafted with soft DK yarn and features airy, expansive eyelets, making it not just a project but a cozy embrace for your evenings. It’s your chance to indulge in a creative knitting experience and complete this beautiful shawl just in time to wear and showcase this season.

Moongazing boasts an original two-color eyelet stitch pattern that I created specifically to explore the fascinating interactions of colors. This is your opportunity to use five colors in a sweeping gradient fade, paired with elegant Stockinette stitch transitions that highlight the unique characteristics of each yarn in turn. The shawl shown is wonderfully made with the luscious Jasper DK from Primrose Yarn Co., ensuring you have the softest and most visually striking fabric.

Embrace the spirit of moongazing and create your own stunning shawl that captures the wonder of the night sky. Whether it's a gift for a loved one or a treat for yourself, the Moongazing Shawl will be a cherished addition to your knitting collection.
