WOW!!!! The artistry that went into creating this shawl is amazing!! The quality of the wool is excellent. It is sooo soft and just the right weight to be worn year round. The multiple warm colors within the wool and the hand-painted border allow it to be worn with anything. The overall design of the shawl makes it very comfortable to wear. All of these things make it practical. However, equally important are the incredible details! The intricate crochet pattern must be seen to be appreciated! Just gorgeous!! The hand-painted border is incredible! Beautiful!! It is obvious the labor of Love that went into making this work of art that will be worn and treasured for a lifetime!!
