Definitely not “skimpy”. I like triangular shawls ... the way they look before you put them on; however, once on, all of the shawl tends to be in the back - the only real way to get more in the front is to make the back even longer/bigger. Rectangular shawls are ok, but this one, with the unique shape, really drapes around the front nicely. I might have to give this one a try!
I see what you mean. I wonder how it would look if you truncated the back, maybe give it a more rounded shorter look.
