The word shawl originates from the Persian word ‘shal’ which is an item of clothing that is loosely worn over the shoulders, upper body, arms as well as over the head sometimes. Shawls are typically rectangular or square, which can be folded into a triangle before being worn. You will also find shawls that are triangular or even oblong but they are always bigger than a scarf.
