the download button is going nowhere on my computer – I just keep on having to press a run button and getting all sorts of stuff added to my computer none of which is the actual pattern – what a bother this is!!

I have the Book and love it but the capes you show have a different kind of hood which is combined with a scarf. How would you make that? It would be nice to see a sketch at least.
