Thank you so much @Croisette7!
Thank you @Ashanti_Rose -- here is my answer to your question below. I use this "cowboy weave" a lot! Hope you like it!
Good evening everyone. Are all cashmere shawls double sided?
I purchased one today (Cosmographia) from a local consignment shop and see it’s not double sided. I only own one other shawl, purchased in the boutique, and it’s double sided. Curious about it. It had the tag, stamped S from a sample sale.

What do you mean by "double sided"? There are silk 90s that are double face - meaning the design is printed on both sides - at times in different colorway - thus creating various possibilities for wear. I am not aware of any cashmere 140 being double faced.
Double faced- that’s the correct term. Thanks for letting me know. Maybe I miss-saw the first shawl I have and it’s actually not double faced.
Dear shawlies, I can use some advice.
I am traveling back in time several months and choosing a colorway for Libre Comme Pégase, a design I have wanted for some time but just never pulled the trigger. I have searched and perused the few modeling pics and I love both of these (both are on hold for me). I think both are wearable this summer as well as going forward into other seasons.
Any votes on Cobalt/Jaune/Blanc versus Vert/Naturel/Bleu?
Much appreciated!!!!

They’re both great choices, and it’s thisclose but the green gets the edge for me because it’s not quite as strong. Both will work with a monochrome outfit (all white, all black 
) but the green might be easier to incorporate with patterns and other color combinations.

Many thanks!! I will try both on, but I DO have a lot of blue shawls
and I love green! I've seen the blue CW hung as art and it was amazing, but that does not make it the best choice to wear!
I love this design, and both colorways are beautiful. But, I also vote for the green!
Have fun trying them, and good luck with your decision. ETA - I now see the green has natural, and the blue has white. I'm picturing the blue one with summer whites! I'd have a hard time deciding and would probably end up buying both!

It is a tough one to answer. I think you have to consider your complexion (skin color, eye color, hair). If you have blond hair/blue eyes, I would suggest getting the blue one. If your complexion is darker, the green one would be a hit. Also, think about your wardrobe and what you are planning to wear it with - and when. The blue one is more spring/summer, the green one would be perfect over winter months.. good luck - they are pretty!
I have a scary feeling that I might buy both! The design is reasonably simple so you're right about the blue with summer whites, and in summer I wear white, navy, black, and yellow a fair amount....I love this design, and both colorways are beautiful. But, I also vote for the green!

Haha I have blonde hair and green eyes! Although my whole family is dark-skinned, I am the pale one, a throwback to a Scandinavian somewhere
It's clear I just have to go with my gut let's hope my gut has its credit cards ready!Popping on to cross post a SS2023 Triangle Geant: Cheval Vague in cw 03. I think it is great with neutrals as I wore it today, but I can see it being so much fun for summer with white linen, blue denim and tee shirts. Lots of fun colors...
Update on Libre Comme Pégase! The blue CW WILL be amazing with summer whites but I had to go for the green. It is a darker and more neutral green IRL than in H pics, which we all know are unreliable.
Congratulations on a fantastic choice-- I have admired this cw in this design for a long time! Beautiful combination.
