The pattern is Simplicity 5772 and the date of publication is 1973.
I was planning on making view 1 but at the last minute I decided on view 2.
I made it in a wonderfully slinky black/gold knit fabric.
It looks bulkier in the pictures but it's really quite a thin knit with a molten metal, silky kind of feel to it.

The fabric makes it festive enough for the New Year and it's just in time for the end of the Vintage Pattern Pledge!
I was hoping to get some more vintage sewing done this past year, but time just flew by so quickly without me realizing it.....
I plan to sew lots more of my vintage patterns in 2016 and I will definately be sharing them here.
As for the turban, I love the way it turned out and now that the weather's turned colder, I'm sure I'll be wearing it a lot.
