I bought it as a gift to myself.
It is very soft and nice and doesn't take much place when storing it.
I'm planning to use it to warm my self over a summery dress at a coming wedding.
Absolutely beautiful! So soft, so colorful. I didn?t notice in the picture the nubbiness of the weave where the different colors come together, but it is definitely a lot of texture - very pretty.
I love the option of lighter colors (& reversible) for this shawl. It is long SOFT and warm. The style is also different with the seam down the back. Nice to have a new version as well as change in color schemes. Superb work !
