Fleece Cloakby ~Nenesta

Artisan Crafts / Costumery

Simple Hooded Cloak Pattern

Here are some (hopefully better) pictures of the dark green fleece cloak I've been sewing.

The colour is hard to catch with a camera... It's rather dark when seen from afar, but really the fabric is somewhat olive green. So I added two fabric close-ups left and right. There you can also see how sloppy I was with the sewing. It's just my machine's simple stretch-stitch, no overlock whatsoever...
The closing is just two of those little hooks (male and female?), though I have no idea what they're called...

Anyways, I'm really happy with how the hood turned out!

Amazing! I'm assuming it hangs the same while you're wearing it, but long is it? (I'm guessing from the mannaquin about knee-length)

Thanks!
Yes, it behaves the same way around human shoulders

The length very much depends on the person wearing it. For me it's even a bit longer than knee long but I'm really short.

Very beautiful! It looks simple, but the fully closed neckline and gently falling front hemline make it quite unique a garment. Rather fantastic, but I wouldn't mind wearing one of these - well, maybe in a more tolerant place than a tiny town at the end of the world, but anyway.

People here would stare, too. Trust me, I tried it

Thanks for your lovely comment!

Oh man, I so desperately want a cloak like this. I saw that you don't have a pattern and aren't selling them...
But I still really want to make one and I'm drawing a blank on how you did it. I can't seem to see the pattern in my mind like I usually can. Can you tell me how you made it?
Also, what kind of fleece did you use?

~Nenesta Feb 8, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

The pattern for this one is actually quite easy, based on a semicircle. Maybe I should draw it out one day

I used some really cheap fleece for this one, the cloak was actually meant to be no more than a throw-away-tryout-something but I ended up liking it enough to upload, obviously

~Ginger-Storm Feb 8, 2012

I think I might be seeing it... so, sort of a semicircle with rounded corners, with a bit cut out of the centre for the hood? Oh, I have to make this...
I would love if you drew it out though, this cloak would be perfect to wear out, not as fanciful as my full length cloaks that look too costume-ish for everyday.
This certainly doesn't look like a throw-away thing, it looks very good! <3

~Nenesta Feb 9, 2012 Hobbyist General Artist

Yes, exactly like that! Nothing fancy at all, pattern-wise

I'll see if I get around drawing it.
Thank you!
