The Seafoam Pattern is worked with a main and a contrasting color yarn so choose a variegated, gradient, or self-striping yarn for the contrast to give it more interest. The cape/cowl is worked from the bottom up, in the round.

It is designed as One Size fits most but includes instructions on how to make it wider.

Yarn and colors featured in the sample shown:
MC : Baah La Jolla color: Singin’ the Blues
CC : Zauberball 75% superwash wool; 25% nylon; 450 yards per 100g skein; fingering weight; color - 2244, lot – 324038; 1 skein

You will need 400 yards of each MC and CC yarn.
MC : 1 skein Baah La Jolla 100% Superwash merino; 400 yards per 100g skein; fingering weight
CC : Any fingering weight yarn that would complement MC yarn; at least 400 yards
If you prefer the version with the collar, you will need additional 100 yards in MC.

Purple cape with collar was made with Baah La Jolla and Classic Elite Yarns Liberty Wool Light yarns. This was a prototype that was made about two years ago and I can not provide the exact colors.
