hooded cape

[iamnichole]

does anyone know of a pattern for a hooded cape? i think i could just make one up on my own, but it would be nice to have a pattern. i'm thinking a cute pointed hood connected to a cape with a big decorative button, for, let's say, fall. regular worsted weight, possibly lion brand wool ease.

open for suggestion. love you girls, thanks in advance.

There's one in the Leisure Arts leaflet, Wrapped in Style

There is a nice Crocheted Hood in Welden's Practical Crochet (I forget which volume). It's worked from the center in a double crochet cross hatch pattern and comes down over the shoulders. It's meant to be worn over a cloak or a shawl.

This is a pattern for an Irish hood and shawl that you might be able to use

Have you checked crochet pattern central for a pattern. They might have what you are looking for.

I like the hooded cape shown on the back of the Leisure Arts "Wrapped In Style" too! I have the leaflet and yarn, but haven't made it yet. It will be for my teen daughter.

In a book called CROCHET FASHIONS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY published by Phoebus Publications, there is a lovely hooded coat and a hooded poncho which are great. This book was gifted to me by a friend way back in 1979 and since then I am using it as most of the patterns are timeless and can be adapted easily.
