"Carra"
 
Brand New to Rachels'!
I have had "Carra" in planning for about seven months and she has
now arrived and is so wonderfully made. "Carra" is a crocheted Sontag (AKA: Bosom Buddy). Period correct for 1800's historical
re-enactments, or just wear for yourself everyday to keep nice and warm! I am sure you will receive many compliments.
 
"Carra" is specifically made for Rachels' Seamstress Services.
The matching "Carra" Coif can be purchased for an additional $13.00. If purchasing the "Carra" Coif separately, price is $15.00. Click here to order the "Carra" Coif separately.
 
Pricing of "Carra" Sontag (below pricing does not include shipping):
 
a) If purchasing your own yarn and mailing the yarn to us: $40.00
Quantity of yarn/skiens needed and address to mail to will be provided when
order is placed.
 
b) If having Rachels' Seamstress Services purchase the yarn: $58.00
 
c) If having the "Carra" Coif also made in addition to the Sontag, and if having Rachels' Seamstress Services purchase the yarn, cost to you is $63.00 for the Sontag plus the cost of the "Carra" Coif, which is $13.00. Total cost to you is then $63.00+$13.00=$76.00 plus shipping.
 
Option for "Carra" Sontag...you can choose to have back loops for the ties to go through at no extra charge. Please check the box below if desiring these loops. Otherwise, ties will thread in-between the yarn. Back loops are spaced as follows:
Loops are 3" above end of back flap. The first loop is 4" in from the side and the second loop is 2" from the first loop. For a total of four small loops to thread the Sontag ties through.
 
When ordering: Please measure carefully! Each Sontag is made for your body specifications, especially the torso area. Refunds are unable to be provided due to not measuring correctly. Thank you for understanding.
 
Please Note: This is a new item and adjustments will be made periodically to the ordering instructions, etc...
