the hood ranged by running a casing
across one point Of q square to form
hood and turning the edge in to form
q frill- The point of square falls down
the back, and ribbons are fastened to
each side of hood to hold the shawl on.
While it would be comparatively easy
to cut such a wrap without a pattern,
1t Is much simpler to pay 10 or IL cents
for good paper pattern. as this gives
directions for both the long and short
shawl wraps.
The materials used are nne French

are left unlined. as they are cooler. A
soft, firm china silk makes the best
lining A yard and a quarter OF yard

The edges can either be faced back
and brierstitched or they can be bound
