What could be more attractive for a young girl than a white jacket with scarlet or navy blue for the background of the scarf material and the buttons? Alternatively, any colours could be chosen to harmonise with a summer outfit but, whatever the colors, the design certainly lends itself to a striking and effective result.

Required for the jacket are seven two-ounce hanks of Astor Classic Boucle, one pair of No. 10 knitting needles, a medium sized crochet hook, shoulder pads, ten small buttons, and a scarf or length of material.
