I have created what I am calling an "Elven Watch Cloak". It is my interpretation of how an elf might make this sort of cloak. Of course, it is no where near the quality or workmanship you might expect of an elf. I just used my imagination and did the best I could. The teal fabric is an unknown wool blend, and the gray is an upholstery fabric. The tassel is jute twine. I also used a teal green broadcloth in a few places, notably around the neckline for comfort. More pictures to follow, as the forum will only allow me to add three attachments at a time.

AWESOME! I love how it is pointed and centered, I think you did a great job! Can you post a pic with the hood up?

More pics of my Elven watch cloak. The front closes with simple little hook and wire closures.

Excellent idea and follow thru. I love the leaf seam veins, the whole cloak is striking!

Thanks all! And thanks to long-suffering Sharon, who has to not only put up with her crazy man, but actually has to help him with things like photos from time to time!
