Simple textures and thoughtful details make this a fun project to knit, even for those new to shawls. The center panel framed by curving wings was inspired by Faroese shawls and creates a shape that sits nicely on your shoulders or wrapped around your neck. The diamond texture stitch is both written and charted.
