CKWEAR and muff sets were
nesfir more fashionable than they
are JuÜ^pow, and they are among the
easiest to make of home-made gifts.
They confer both style and comfort
upon their wearers to the joy of those
who receive them.
Neckpieces are simply straight
lengths of velvet, plush or fur cloth,
cut a quarter of a yard wide and a
yard or more la length. They are
lined with satiD and gathered in at the
ends, where a taeseled ornament
makes the finish. They fasten about
the neck with a hook and eye or slide.
Crocheted, passamenterie or bead
buckles and ornaments are used on
them.
Muffs are barrel-shaped and made
over beds of down or wool batting.
These beds are bought ready made
and are very cheap. Velvet coverings
are usually gathered over them with
ruffles at each end as shown in the
picture. The muff and ruffles are lined
with satin. Silk cords or strands of
large black beads are fashionable this
season for decorating these 6ets.

A COLLAR and vestee in sheer or
gandie, to wear with tailored suits
• will be welcomed by every woman and
costs almoBt nothing but the time for
making. The flaring collar Is finished
with hand-embroidered scallops or a
band of fine narrow swiss embroidery,
or lace, which extends down each side.
The collar and vestee must be cut
separately and joined at the neck line.
The collar Is wired to make It etand
. and flare correctly.
A brilliant vestee, with collar and
revers of filmy lace, is pictured made
of brocaded velvet and shadow lace.
The vestee Is a band about the neck
r gradually widening to the waist line
where It is trimmed into points. It
fastens just above the points with
books and eyee, and here three small,
fancy buttons are set on for ornament.
A short ruffle of lace forms a flaring
collar which is supported with fine
wires. The revers are made of straight
piece' of lace draped ln at each side
and at the top ln the neck line. Made
of bright colored brocades this is one
of the protest of novelties to be worn
to embellish the blouse.
