Notes before you start
- Source: "Black and White and Woven", Knitted and Crocheted Boutique (Star Book No. 226), American Thread Company. Public domain in the USA.
- As printed — materials: AMERICAN THREAD “DAWN” KNITTING WORSTED or DAWN “SAYELLE”; 2—4 oz. skeins each Black and White for scarf; 1—4 oz. skein each Black and White for hat; Large Tapestry Needle; Plastic Crochet Hook Size J OR ANY SIZE HOOK WHICH WILL RESULT IN STITCH GAUGE BELOW. Gauge: 7 sts = 2 inches.
- Modernisation note: Original is written in US crochet terms; kept as US terms (sc = single crochet, dc = double crochet, tr = treble crochet).
- Modernisation note: Spaced abbreviations (s c, d c, sl st) written as sc, dc, sl st; "trc" written as tr (the booklet's abbreviation list gives "Treble Crochet tr c"); "1st" written as "first"; "st of ch" written as "ch" where the stitch is a chain; "repeat" written as "rep".
- Modernisation note: "Cut yarn" written as "fasten off"; "attach" (yarn) written as "join".
- Modernisation note: Long printed paragraphs split into one row, round or step per line; stitch order unchanged.
- Modernisation note: The printed materials carry a footnote mark after "SAYELLE" (a DuPont certification mark for the fibre); the mark is omitted from the materials list.
- Modernisation note: Labels added: scarf rows (printed "NEXT ROW") numbered Row 1–2; crown rounds (printed "NEXT ROUND") numbered Rnd 1–3; weaving rows labelled "Weaving row" to keep them apart from crochet rows. The crown's final round of sc at the lower edge labelled "Band".
- Modernisation note: "Weave in ends" added as a finishing step; not printed.
- Modernisation note: Check: Row 2 turns with ch 3 but works "d c in next d c, ch 1" with no ch 1 between the turning chain and the first dc; some workers ch 4 to keep the edge mesh open. Kept as printed.
- Modernisation note: Check: the weaving alternates colours every 4 weaving rows, but the colour of the first 4 rows is not printed — only "5th ROW: With Black"; the first 4 are presumably White. The hat weaving strand length (¾ yd) is printed without a strand count. Kept as printed.
- Modernisation note: Metric conversions added.
