Shawl “Feteasca” will warm you in a cold day adequately replacing a between-seasons jacket or a warm jacket. Absolutely casual - suitable for a cocktail or evening dress and jeans with a leather jacket.
The name of the shawl “Feteasca” means “maiden” in Romanian. Same name stands for a variety of grapes which I tired to express through jacquard style. It’s unique, one of a kind design.

This pattern provides easy to follow charts with detailed description for every step of the process.
