Notice the beads in the fringes and the double lines of hemstitching.

The "colored" side. Which do you like best?

The "white" side.

I think the 'white' side gives a softer look...but I like the 'coloured' side too! Hard to choose!
Are those beads stitched on? How is that done?

I agree, it is hard to choose between the "colored" side and the "white" side. I think it would depend on the day, lol.

The beads aren't stitched on, they are actually on the warp threads. Rather than trying to explain it here I think I'll do a post on it, complete with pictures (one day soon).

I think I'd go with the coloured side, although I sure wouldn't complain if I got stuck with the white side ;-)

Beautiful!!

Hi Lorraine, thanks for stopping in.

One nice thing is anyone that had this shawl wouldn't really have to choose. If you have one side you have the other one too, LOL.
