Customer Reviews
I am so disappointed in this pattern. I have used this method of downloading patterns in the past with moderate success and I realize that is is truly a beginner sewing project. My problem is technical in nature. I thought it was just me, but I had my daughter come up to help me and neither one of us could figure out all the dotted lines and “layering “ that the instructions talk about. I have printed out all instruction ( 29 pages) twice and still can not figure out how to put the parts together. I so wanted to try this pattern but I guess I will look somewhere else for a cape. To be honest, I thought I was going to receive a pattern in the mail when I saw the price.

Easy to follow pattern that offers lots of versatility and lovely details. My granddaughter loves it and wears it on all her daily adventures
Love everything about this pattern, easy directions, fit is good and one very happy little girl 💕
For granddaughter
My daughter wanted a princess cape for her birthday and this fitted the brief perfectly. I made the size 5-7 but lengthened it. The instructions were easy to follow. I do wish I pressed the lining seems as I went.
This pattern was so enjoyable to sew with so many options for customization. Even though the pattern is meant for woven fabrics, I was working with a knit (to make a capelet that matched another project) and this pattern worked a dream! I already have a request for long cloak from my niece, who loved her capelet so much. She is excited to have a winter cloak that she can wear instead of a "regular coat."
Easy to follow instructions and finished exactly as I had imagined it! I'm working on a second one right now!
Unlimited possibilities to express your creativity with this cape. First travel is for the sewist while sewing it! Tutorial, step-by-step explanations very well done as usual with T&T patterns !
Great pattern, really easy to follow for begginers to. My daughter liked it so much as a costume for carnivale.
Thank you. :)
I immediately fell in love with the Knights costumes, that you can make with the traveller cape pattern, when I saw the pictures. It was a lot of work, because of my choise of fabric every piece has a lining... But it was worth it. Can't wait to see my two sons in it and see their reaction! (It's a Christmas present). The tutorial of the traveller cape was very clear. Thank you!
