McCalls capes



Aren't these great? I want to make the one on the left but I'm running out of winter time. Both appeared in the old McCalls. Fall-Winter 71/2 for the one on the left and spring/summer 1975 for the one with the bobbles. I think a worsted wt yarn will work on both of them.

The one on the left is really nice! I like that very much too. Has it got slits for the arms like the other one with the bobbles?

Thanks for the blast from the past, Marian. I made the bobbles cape for my mother-in-law the year before I married her son -- 1975. She wore it to death. I'm pretty sure I made mine with Brunswick Germantown, so a worsted weight wool of today would work fine.
