center of the upper part of this card a.large dress hook is v sewn, and the card is next smoothly covered on both sides with silk, a small slit being cut in the material for the hook. Across the lower half a pocket is arranged lined with soft white silk and turned over at the top. so that it forms a little flounce and shows the lining with pretty effect Tbs tidy is finished off at the edges
