I have just recently made a lovely green cloak using the pattern at AlleyCatScratch. Well, to say that I made it might be a little presumptuous - it was my first encounter with the sewing machine and to say my mom helped would be an understatement. More like I "helped" her...
Anyhow, the cloak is quite nice and I rather adore it. The only thing is that it doesn't sit quite right at the clasp, which we sewed on more than once...
I may yet try to fix it but maybe not. The pattern itself was not difficult once we figured it out.
