This double-breasted cape features a warm center panel of double crochet perfect for featuring a set of stunning buttons, while the back and sides show off a pretty, lacy pattern. Stillhet Cape is designed to hit at just the right length to provide a layer of warmth while also maintaining a high level of movement. Crocheted from the top down, the garment’s generous size range and flattering shape means it will look gorgeous on just about everyone.
