Question from antmeg, “Hi ladies! I am looking for suggestions on a wrap/shawl. My stepson is getting married and I’d like to have an amazing shawl to wear over my dress. Dress is floor length, one shoulder and black so anything goes really. Just need a good pattern and also yarn suggestion for a yarn that absolutely does not shed. I appreciate your help!
