Nice texture and colors! I

Nice texture and colors! I like the shaping of the top, did you just cut rectangles and sew them together or is this a commercial sewing pattern?

Pattern

This was a simple shaping of rectangles, no pattern involved.  It was determined by the width and length of the cloth.  One rectangle up and over each shoulder - for the length desired (or that you have :).  A bit of sewing for the side seam - hemming of each cut end.  Centre piece hemmed and sewn to the two side panels.  Easy-peasy even for someone like me who doesn't much like sewing!

Happy Weaving!
