Crochet: Cape
This is a very warm (but not windproof) hooded cloak. It is especially excellent to use around the house in the winter. The difficulty of this pattern is mostly endurance rather than complicated stitches.
Knitting: Scarf
The gauge is not very important for this scarf, but do make sure that your work is loose enough that the braid doesn’t stretch too much.
