This lovely set is re-worked from a 1932 design, originally published in ‘My Home’. A quote from the original pattern description: “sheer genius it was to combine a suggestion of military smartness with this irresistibly feminine crochet cap and cravat!”

This pattern includes instructions for a cap and matching scarf.
Two contrasting colours are used.

Yarn to make the set can be purchased by following this link, Susan Crawford Excelana 4 Ply Luxury Wool.
