poppy scarflet


I bought the pattern for this from Etsy.com as I thought it would be nice for Alison's birthday. It took a while to find the right green yarn as green doesn't seem to be fashionable at the moment but Cleckheaton Bamboo has a pretty soft green—perhaps more yellow than the photo shows it— and the red is a pure wool Cleckheaton Merino Bambino.
The button is an antique from Mum's button tin which I never saw on any outfit of hers so it must be 1940s or older.
