Buy the TPC3 The Cape sewing pattern from Trend Patterns. Inspired by the AW16 catwalks, this will be the only cape you'll ever want to own, and we're sure you'll be making one in every colour. Use a nice quality wool to compliment the chic, luxurious shape, and you will be making an entrance whenever you wear it.

There are two opening options, centre front or centre back neck. You can also choose to make the cape in a short or long length. The longer length is great for a chic evening look, and the short is perfect for keeping warm during the day.

Note: Trend Patterns are suited to a more confident maker.
