There is something special and unique about rectangle shawls. Although there are lots of triangle and derivative patterns available, rectangular shawls are less popular and it’s rare that you can find a one that really stands out. It’s a pity, because they are easier to make and more elegant than triangle shawls. They are also easier to resize and can fit over a greater variety of clothing, they can even be used as a blanket.
