SACQUE

YOKE … Starting at neck edge, ch 114 (to measure 10½ inches). 1st row: Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in next 17 ch (front), 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 19 ch (shoulder), 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 35 ch (back), 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 19 ch (shoulder), 3 sc in next ch, sc in next 18 ch (front). Ch 1, turn. 2nd to 20th rows incl: Sc in each sc across, making 3 sc in center sc of each 3-sc group (at corners). There are 273 sc in last rnd. This completes Yoke. Ch 1, turn.
   Work in pattern as follows: 1st row: Sc in 1st sc, (ch 5, skip 1 sc, sc in next sc) 8 times; (ch 5, sc in next sc) 7 times; (ch 5, skip 1 sc, sc in next sc) 8 times (23 loops across front). Make 28 loops across shoulder and 39 loops across back. Work over remaining shoulder and front to correspond (141 loops in all). Turn. 2nd row: (Right side) Sl st in loop, ch 3, 3 dc in same loop, * ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 3, 4 dc in next loop. Repeat from * across. Ch 1, turn. 3rd row: Sc in 1st dc, * ch 5, sc in next loop. Repeat from * across, ending with ch 5; sc in top of ch-3. Ch 7, turn. 4th row: * Sc in next loop, ch 3, 4 dc in next loop, ch 3.  Repeat from * across, ending with sc in last loop, ch 3, tr in sc. Turn. 5th row: Sl st in loop, * ch 5, sc in next loop. Repeat from * across. Turn. Repeat the 2nd to 5th rows incl for pattern until piece measures 3½ inches from yoke, ending with the 3rd row.

BODY … Next row: Work in pattern across 23 loops of front, skip 28 loops (for sleeve), work in pattern across next 39 loops of back, skip 28 loops (other sleeve) and continue in pattern across to end of row. Turn. Work back and forth in established pattern over sts of previous row until piece measures 9½ inches from top of shoulder, ending with the 2nd row of pattern. Work border as follows: 1st row: * Sc in next 4 dc, 2 sc in next loop, sc in next loop. Repeat from * across, ending with sc in last 3 dc and in top of ch-3. Ch 1, turn. 2nd to 6th rows incl: Sc in each st across. Ch 1, turn. 7th row: Sc in 1st sc, * ch 5, skip 3 sc, sc in next sc. Repeat from * across, being careful to have an odd number of loops on row. Turn. 8th row: Sl st in loop, ch 3, 3 dc in same loop, * ch 3, sc in next loop, ch 3, 4 dc in next loop. Repeat from * across. Fasten off.

SLEEVES … With right side facing, attach thread to 1st loop of sleeve section and work back and forth in pattern until sleeve measures 7 inches from neck edge (measuring along center of sleeve), ending with 2nd row of pattern. Work border as on bottom of Sacque, having only 4 (instead of 6) rows of sc. Fasten off. Work other sleeve to correspond. Work a row of sc along left front edge of yoke. Fasten off. Work a row of sc along right front edge of yoke, making 2 ch-4 buttonloops. Press with hot iron, through damp cloth. Sew on buttons to correspond with loops. Use 1½ yards of ribbon for Sacque. Make 2 loops at each end of ribbon and sew looped ends at front edges of yoke. Cut ribbon ties.

CAP

Starting at tip of crown, ch 2. 1st rnd: 6 sc in 2nd ch from hook. Sl st in 1st sc made. Ch 1, turn. 2nd rnd: 2 sc in each st around. Sl st in 1st sc of rnd and in following sc. Ch 1, turn. 3rd rnd: 2 sc in same place as last sl st, sc in next sc (where other sl st was made), * 2 sc in next sc, sc in next sc. Repeat from * around, ending same as last rnd (with 2 sl sts). Ch 1, turn. 4th rnd: 2 sc in same place as last sl st, sc in next sc (where other sl st was made), sc in next sc, * 2 sc in next sc, sc in next 2 sc. Repeat from * around, ending rnd as before. Ch 1, turn. Continue in this manner, increasing 6 sc on each rnd (1 at each of 6 points), until there are 150 sc in rnd. Work 2 rnds without increasing (piece should measure 4½ inches from side to side across center). Ch 5, turn and work back and forth over 5 sides only (remaining side is back of Cap) as follows: Next row: * Skip 2 sc, sc in next sc, ch 5. Repeat from * across 5 sides, ending with sc (41 loops). Turn. Work in lacy pattern as on Sacque until side of Cap measures 3¾ inches, ending with 2nd row of pattern. Work border as for bottom of Sacque.
