Antique Victorian Mourning Shawl Ring Knit Wool with Hairpin Edges 50s NY dress and diagonal pockets at theThis is an intricately constructed shawl, rather unique in its design, with hand knit intersecting rings in wool in combination with hairpin lace like edges. I have provided a number of close up photos of the work it is quite impressive. I believe that this would have been worn by someone mourning the death of a loved one during the Victorian age. Sizing: The shawl is rectangular in shape, measuring 46 by 52, including the protruding edge shapes.
