Burda Style For people who sew
Description
I transformed the collar and added controlled pleat to the sleeves, shoulders and back details so the cape can sit better on the shoulders. I think I prefer to wear it without a belt. All in all, I think it is a great pattern
Material Notes
Taupe woolen fabric

Gorgeous cape. Makes me want to make one myself… (but I think I’ll wait a while, winter’s too cold here, and spring is far far away). I’m so impressed with the finish of your work, it’s always really perfect and so often a bit special too! I like it a lot.

This is so interesting, to compare your variation of the cape with Caregana’s one. Although you made the cape very recognizable, and almost identical to the original, the capes look different on the two of you. While your style is very casual, I see Caregana’s as almost military straight. Either way, I love them both! Couldn’t say which one’s better :).

I like your rounded collar. The way the sleeves drape is lovely. Great work.

It is just perfect! Love all you changes and I really mean it ;)! I tried the rounded collar, but it wasn’t my thing.but I must say you found the right size for it, mine was too large.
The posh fabric is just cool, never knew you can get a ripped wool. And the background ist quite appropriate.
