The question is about a shawl that was recently given to the
Smithsonian. It was given to Harriet Tubman by Queen Victoria.
There is a thread on Ravelry about it with some photos on page 3 of the
thread (post 65). Link:

If you are not on Ravelry, here on the same photos in the poster's Flickr set:

Scroll down to "Silk shawl given to Harriet Tubman by Queen Victoria, c.
1897" (two photos).
Is the edging knitted? What about the center?
Thoughts, opinions? (And please let me know if I may pass them on to
Ravelry or not, thank you.)
