Our cloak with a hood is ready!

If you want your hood to be tightened with ribbons, then after step # 4 you need to step back from the edge of 1 cm and stitch it again. Then put on the rope.

And if you need a fur edge, then sew it, wrapping the edge of a strip of fur.

In case you need to make an elongated sharp hood (like a dwarf), we need to draw an acute angle to the existing pattern, with the sides of the desired length.

We fold the fabric from which we will sew the hood, in two layers (necessarily the sides inwards) and cut out the made pattern 2 pieces.

We sew together the sides of an acute angle, and we straighten an even edge and spread it out.

If necessary, sew up the lining and weighed on the main product.
