A Jane Eyre Shawl

Ever since the BBC's beautiful adaptation of Jane Eyre in in 2006, I have been obsessed with this shawl! It stands out so incredibly on film and it is the perfect size plaid for the 1840s/1850s. I've been keeping my eye out for a similar shade and I found a Pendleton design at the Sew Expo:
Now if only I had some Moors to brood about on clad in a dark colored dress... :).
