This circa 1890 design is a shawl with overlapping double-breasted front-pieces. The pattern is simple yet the construction intriguing. If you want a warm shawl which will STAY IN PLACE, this is the pattern for you!

The original pattern states: This cross-over is suitable for outdoor wear under a jacket or fur cloak, or may be worn in the house, it is double across the chest, and affords ample warmth without being heavy.
