"Nice, but not quite what I expected."

It must be the word shawl, because I thought this would have more weight to it. It looks more like a table runner, which is how I will probably use it. It is quite pretty.

"Nice scarf"

My wife tell me she would have given the card a 5-star rating if it had been just a little bit softer. Perfect length, nice weave.
