It's time for Part 2 of the Blue Moon Shawl Moogly Fall 2021 Crochet Along! This year's pattern is in cooperation with Yarnspirations, so you can follow along with the crochet along in parts here on Moogly, or go to Yarnspirations.com to get the whole pattern as a PDF!

Featuring Caron Big Donut O'Go
To make the Blue Moon Shawl I used 2 skeins of Caron Big Donut O'Go, both in the Blue Moon colorway. I love this color combo - it reminds me so much of Van Gogh's Starry Night!
I really loved using O'Gos for this project - the yarn stays tangle-free and flows easily, and you don't have to separate the colors until you're ready. Each section features the "next" color in the skein, minimizing the possible mess - or you can mix it up and create your own color scheme!
Follow Along with the Crochet Along or Jump Ahead
As is tradition, the Moogly Fall 2021 Crochet Along will be broken into 3 parts.
