In this video DiY tutorial, Maxx shows you step by step how to make an awesome looking cloak from a Harbor Freight Wool Blanket. (If that store no longer carries them, try amazon or military surplus for a similar look.)
This has to be one of the easiest and best looking builds I've done on this channel. It only requires 4 items and cost about $10 USD. Even if you can't find the wool blanket I use on this video, any 80" x 60" (203 cm x 153 cm) piece of fabric, sheet, tarp or blanket will work.
I personally like this build because it is so versatile and can be used in any genre, yet still retains the original blanket, so it can be used to sleep with or spread out for meals or whatever you can think of. If you make one, please share a photo with me on any of my social media accounts; Twitter, Instagram or Snapchat, all @larpmix
If you find this video helpful, please spread the good word and let others know about my channel, I appreciate it! And don't forget to like and subscribe yourself, if you haven't already.
Items You Need:
x1 Harbor Frieght Wool Blanket (Western Safety Brand)
x2 Rounded Objects (spell packs, Rival balls, stones, golfballs, etc)
x1 Piece of string, twine, jute, paracord, leather, etc
Combine this cloak with my T-Shirt Tunic, $2 Viking leg wraps and budget pants to have a full (Good Enough Looking) costume kit for under $20. Or add existing pieces of your kit, like a hooded mantle or furs overtop of this cloak to really punch it up a notch.

***Machine wash this style wool blanket at your own risk. I have a large machine with no agitator in it and the blanket made it out fine. However, if you choose to machine wash yours, it's at your own risk. You SHOULD hand wash it, as per the instructions. But certainly do not machine dry it no matter what. Air dry only***
