Vogue V8776 Cape

I made this cape using a grey wool that I bought at Jo-Ann's a couple years ago and Vogue pattern V8776, view A.

This pattern is designated very easy so I was expecting to be able to whip it up in just a few hours. It took a lot more than a few hours for me to complete this one. It's not very hard but is definitely not for beginners.

But, I do like the cape. It's pretty easy to wear (although arm movement is a little limited). You can wear the collar up or down and it has pockets.

The biggest mistake I made was making the notches on both sides. Those notches are for the in-seam buttonholes. They only need to go on one side. Below is the collar and the in seam buttonhole between the collar and the body.
