Crochet triangle shawl pattern "Blue Moon"

What color is the moon? You can deliberate over the question while crocheting this triangular shawl. It is easy and relaxing, just the right kind of pattern for meditating over important questions.

The shawl is worked diagonally from side to side in an easy lace pattern. Although the pattern is written for fingering weight yarn, it will work in any other yarn and matching hook as well.

"The Moon Is Blue" was a song by the British band Colourbox, released in 1985. In this year the nights seemed to be longer and were full of adventures. The song was the soundtrack for those nights.
