Looking to make a short cloak for historical wear (or even your modern wardrobe?) This two part sew along covers everything you need to get started! (Missed Part 1? Watch it here: youtu.be/czsqRnN1ENQ)

We're using the official B&T Short Cloak Pattern (link below) but the construction techniques we'll be covering will work for any short cloak that is made out of broadcloth (silk gets put together a little bit differently.)

In Part 2 we walk you through assembly where you will seam your body pieces, assemble and attach your hood, then as a bonus Angela shows how to face the cloak with ribbon!

2:37 Hood with Lining Instructions

7:14 Attach Hood to Cloak
11:25 Facing
13:46 Facing Bottom Finish
13:51 Closures
