Inspired by autumn evenings, mysterious woods, and a touch of the supernatural, the Ravencroft Cape is a unique take on the classic granny square. Designed with a striking diagonal granny-square border, this cozy cape is perfect for crisp fall days and chilly nights.

The Ravencroft Cape is a made-to-measure garment, allowing you to create a cape that fits your unique measurements rather than relying on standard sizing.

The pattern begins with granny squares and triangles, which are sewn together to create the foundation of the cape. You’ll then work across the joined edge, building upward toward the shoulders and neck.

The neckline has two rounds of border, with the cape ties worked directly into the border for a polished finish.

Choose your favorite fall palette for a colorful statement piece, or keep it simple with just one or two colors—the construction and distinctive silhouette allow the design to shine either way.
