Julia's Cloak
Julia of Dark Shadows in the past inspired this knit. Such a luscious, extravagant item with loads of fabric. We could line ours with taffeta for the swish swish sound as we walk. Just don’t allow Barnabas to hear.
Top down, in the round with ease and flare. If you can knit a circular shawl, split up the front, this will be a snap for you. With this garment you have a collar and a choker as well as a hood with optional lining. This is the ultimate snuggle, for a vampire on a cold winter night.
PM me if you’d like yarn for this cloak. As of 2022
