Hi, my name is Frances and I have finally finished my cape. It has been waiting for me to do the hem for the last week. The pattern is from Burda 8/2011 and the material is an op-shop find from a couple of years ago. I think it is wool, though I haven’t tried a burn test. I think the arm slits are a little bit low, but I’m happy to wear it as it is. It’s great seeing everyone’s capes and capelets, can’t wait for next month’s challenge.
Really like the length, colour, & the collar style of your cape – congratulations!
