I was thinking of something else but when I saw this picture ahh okay...it's actually a throw with wedding ring design. This can be a good wedding present something that will remind the couple of this important day in their lives. Thanks for this free pattern which is found on the same page. It is very clearly presented complete with photos and diagrams. Thanks again.
