Bouclé Knit Cape

The idea is that the cape can be worn over the coat. So to make the cape fit the coat, focus on the volume of the coat, not the person.

Yarn: 100% Wool Bouclé yarn: 59 yds (54 m)/3.5 oz (100 g).

For the cape I used up 459 g of my Bouclé yarn.

Gauge: 100% Wool Bouclé yarn: 11 sts /20 rows = 10 cm in garter stitch.

NOTE: I found this Bouclé yarn at my mom’s home (the yarn is older than me!), so it’s a “no name” Bouclé. I measured it carefully (see above) I’m sure you can find some similar one nowadays:) You may need to use a suitable Bouclé yarn in several strands.

Tools: A few pairs of circular needles 5mm of different length (from 40 cm to 150-180 cm), markers, a crochet hook 5mm.
