Self-colors always find place in the fashion scheme of things at all seasons of the year, and the autumn shades are so pleasing that many women will prefer to wear them separately, instead of combining two or three, as in former seasons. Plain-colored pullovers promise to be very popular for wear with the new tailleurs, and the design for which we are giving instructions is particularly suitable for this. The original model, which is hand-knitted in a soft shade of willow green, may be seen in the wool department at Farmer’s.
