This light and airy design features a winding motif of yarn overs and cables, creating a dynamic, swirling texture that adds a touch of sophistication to your wardrobe. The flowing ribbed border seamlessly extends from the cables, offering a beautifully cohesive look, while I-Cord edges provide a polished finish that elevates the classic shawl shape.
