’I never play without my cape.’ -Bela Lugosi
Elsa is a pattern for a cape worked from the top down and in the round and with a steek. The main portion of the body is worked in stockinette with the bottom edge, bands, and collar worked in Linen Stitch. Work in one colour or with contrasting bands and edges, plus a little slip stitch detail along the bottom edge. A great project for your favourite big button that has been in hiding!
Mona Zillah - bunnymuff
Inspired by the environments around me, I strive to make relevant designs that are clever additions to any outfit; blending traditional and contemporary styles, with a focus on colourwork. Most bunnymuff patterns are easily adjustable for a personal best fit in an extended range of sizes. bunnymuff supports ethical sourcing and climate/people conscious buttons, wool stuffing, and other notions!
