Notes Style: cape Fabric: wool melton Lining: Alice in Wonderland print from Spoonflower.com Interfacing: woven sew in interfacing Pattern changes: - omitted collar, added neck hole facing - moved arm slits 5/8" towards the side seam (I found them a bit too close to the centre front - shortened lenght 2.5" - used sew-in interfacing at facings - added stay tape at shoulders, neck hole and arm slits to ensure they won't stretch out - sew the hem by hand - bagged the lining I previously made a winter white cape using a sparkly boucle. This cape found a new home - my sister-in-law is going to wear it at her wedding (I will also make her wedding dress). She didn't want the knitted collar I made for it, I love how it looks with this cape - I love big and dramatic collars.

    Lovely cape! The lining and unique buttons really add to is charm. The knit collar would certainly be a great option for cold weather.
    Your sister-in-law is a lucky woman!
