I love this cape and I’m looking forward to wearing it this winter with a mid-calf, dark brown chenille skirt and dark brown boots! Come on Winter, I’m ready for ya!
The Pattern was a Special Insert by Tahki and featured as a fold-out in VOGUE KNITTING Fall 2005 (now out of print…but many of us have the issue. Is it ok to share patterns when the original copy is out of print? Does that break copyright rules?)
The Yarn: Naturwolle Black Forest
Colors used: TRAPPER, HAZELNUT, and CHOCOLATE
Gauge: 12st=4"
Length from back neck to bottom: 32"
Collar unbuttoned:
Collar buttoned up eliminates the need for a neck scarf!
Oval, wood buttons:
The original VOGUE photography. You can see how the armholes work! I think the model cape has basted the bottom portion of the ribbing ‘closed’ for a better look.
I may do the same.
