About this Item
In all the colors of a fiesta, cotton yarns are handwoven together on a traditional backstrap loom. They create the intricate stripes and X patterns of this shawl from Guatemala. Elena Ixtamer creates this artisanal shawl, which is sure to turn heads wherever it goes. Hand-knotted fringe work accents the ends of this marvelous accessory.

“Makes me happy”
Just looking at this shawl makes me happy! The colors are vibrant, and it feels great against the skin. It is large enough to wear as a shawl, but not too large that it can t be worn as a scarf. It is amazingly beautiful! Thank you Elena!

“Beautiful detail”
I expected a weave of cotton yarn thicker than these doubled threads used throughout. The colors are always two per section so that the weave can showcase both in a pattern on one side or single color on each side. The pattern of Xs is very unique and a nice contrast to the striping. I have not learned to use a loom and this shawl gives me great respect for the artist.
