It can be felt long before it arrives. The sky grows dark, like a bruise, and the air is hushed, waiting. Then, in the distance, a rumble, just as the full moon begins to rise, peeking above the horizon for a brief moment before being swallowed by the storm: Thunder Moon.

The Thunder Moon shawl has a diamond-like lace body and an arrowhead lace border. The sample shawl was worked in Lichen and Lace’s 1 ply merino fingering (colourway: Silver Fox) and is a size medium.
