“The shawl so nice I bought it twice!”

Purple is my favorite color, and the shade of turquoise blue used in this scarf is my go to back up when I cant find stuff in purple. It is also wonderfully soft and I decided I needed one to hang as decoration and one to wear, or more accurately use for autistic stimming, as it is fantastic to hold!
