Some Sewing Instructions: Cut out the pattern pieces as indicated. The hood can be cut out in two contrasting colors. Sew the lining and hood pieces as indicated in the picture. Then sew the lining into the hood..

The cape is a complete circle. For stiff fabrics, you may want to make only 3/4 of a circle. Cut two outer cape body pieces. Sew them together at back. Cut
arm holes as indicated. Sew the lining to the outer cape piece, matching the arm holes. Do not sew the neck holes, you can use this to turn the cape right side out.

To add arms, first hem the cuff edge. Then, sew the side seams. Gather with a running stitch at the top, to fit arm hole. Insert into arm holes and sew in. Add Hood to cape top. Sew it to the outer cape first, and then
fold the lining over this seam and baste into place. |
