NOTES:

  1. Lower band for back is worked first in ribbing. Then sts are picked up along one long edge of the band, to work the Cape.
  2. Sts are picked up on completed Cape to work front bands.
  3. Front bands are joined to the Cape as they are worked.
  4. Cape design uses a number of refined techniques, including Sloped Bind Off and Cast On.
  5. A circular needle is used to accommodate the large number of sts. Work back and forth in rows on circular needle as if working with straight needles.
