The most underrated video in all the lands.

[@Subwo0f3r]

I really appreciate you drawing on the paper to show what to do first because a lot of tutorials were so messy and only say 'cut like this, cut like that'. Can't really see what's going on. But your instructions were very clear and you showed a wider view. Great video.

[@gingeramy300]

It's called bias binding. Thanks for simple and informative tutorial.

[@FoxtailCos]

Thank you, glad you like it ^^

[@debuenzo]

Or bias tape

[@elizabethclaiborne6461]

Great tutorial! Pro tip - all the cans of soup and corn in the kitchen are also known as pattern weights. Putting them on your fabric to keep it flat and still whilst cutting really helps. Also, to make those long hems ironing the edges also makes it easier. Like, fold it and iron the hem in, them stitch it up. Make sure you have the right heat setting.

[@vanessaladywitch5885]

You are the first one who makes a perfect and proper hooded cape!!! thanks you are great... ❤💓🖤

[@janeburgess9089]

Totally feel the same. Been looking at a few videos and this is the first that really has the right shape.

[@shotzaouzo]

It was really helpful to watch you draw and explain your pattern. Thanks for the great tutorial!

[@mellosays]

What you added to the edge is called either bias tape or bias binding in English :) Thank you for the tutorial!

[@indeedcredible3601]

I also believe what you call binding as 'bias' as well in the US ABSOLUTE BEST TUTORIAL I'VE SEEN!! Getting ready to try today.

[@Javaman92]

I've been looking at videos on how to make a cape for over a week. Yours is the best!

[@mirandaroger4945]

[@rachelpork8464]

[@blueeyedwattson4571]

This is great especially if you cosplay in winter

[@Cybersixx.]

You're super cute! Love your video, I'm making capes for me and my husband for fancon next year! Capes are pretty simple but it helps to have someone show you for the small questions. :) TY!

[@daddy3205]

[@lorddante2360]

Hmm, with a few modifications this should fit nicely over the tread-plate armor. Very nice and simple diy

[@Amy-ll1qo]

Thank you for this!! So useful!

[@Polonium-oz4bl]

Hello there! First thanks for that simple and awesome tutorial. Second, I’m working on a templar knight cosplay and I need a cloak on it. The thing I want to ask, is should I add the neck hole length to the radius, like if the cape is to be 1,50m long, should I add the 40cm long neck hole to that measurement, making the radius approx 2m long?

[@antyludek]

Thank you for this video, I will be making cloak for sure, that really was helpful

[@elinaandriady]

Thank you very much, i am the beginner in the sewing and your tutorial so great 😊

[@PIERROTGUY]

Bias binding is that edgeband called. Love that cloak! Good job

[@dereklawrence6282]

I believe the seam pieces your using are called: Pre- Cut/ made seams in all different sizes and colors right next to the sewing noscence counters.

[@jackalboi2927]

this will do me well, thank you

The adeptus mechanicus is very greatfull

[@gwendolinedefert5246]

Hello, thank you for this great video. I had a question: What fabrics did you use for that cape? I'm sorry if you said it in the sorry video but I can't speak English very well) 😸😸

[@FoxtailCos]

its wool im using :)

[@luismiguelgarciacanan5245]

Me gusta la capa. XL gracias

[@ringring-zf3vt]

素晴らしいです！欲しい！

[@watuchun5169]

That strip is called bias tape.

[@victoriaeason3743]

But you could also use a wide ribbon to cover the seams

[@michahallett4364]

Just a heads up- the sewing line is actually called bias tape

[@KuroRyuu13]

what do you do instead of a zig-zag stitch if you sew only by hand? i just started sewing literally last week and don't have access to a sewing machine or anyone irl who knows how to sew

[@speederxbat]

What kind of fabric did you use?

[@ghostofthemaiar]

Hi! Thanks for making this tutorial it's very clear and easy to follow! I'm 5'3, and I have 2 yards of fabric. Do you think it's enough to make a long cloak (long enough to reach to my ankles)? I've never made a cloak before, and I just need some input before I cut anything. I don't want a hood or anything, just a cloak. Thanks!

[@TheToneBender]

I've had a bunch of cloth my aunt had hoarded stuffed in my closet for like a year now. Somehow I never considered making a cloak... Also, a question: You have the cloak 1.5 m. Should I crank that number up because I'm a big boi? I'm nearly 2m. Should I measure from my shoulders to the ground or something?

[@lightningwing8962]

I wish you luck finding fabric with a width of 2m but generally you want it to be around 10-20cm under your total height so you'd probably want fabric with a width of say 1.8-1.9m if possible and get 3.6-3.8m length, however, this may prove difficult as not a lot of fabric comes in that width. It being 1.5 will probably bring it to about upper shin height. Hope this helped!

[@wolfox1mw941]

I made a cloak and hero cape bu the weigh is making the buckle to open on my cape. I dunno what to replace it with. OnO One large one I added tot he cape and it break open if move it. Do you know make the buckles less openable? D;

[@mariapacoguachalla6507]

Gracias.........

[@liyahdana3264]

love your cape.🥰what is the name of fabric used could u paste link of were u got it. thanks x

[@wytts9264]

I’m pretty sure she used wool (she answered from another comment)

[@storyshiftcharagenderless9256]

Can U Glue Or Hot Glue It?

[@satribbett]

The strip of material is called Binding

[@LaineyBug2020]

I've always kind of wanted to make one of these of mosquito netting to wear outside...

[@emmascustomcloset]

I'm getting a sewing machine today! I'll see if my mom will let me use one of our really old sheets and comforters that don't fit any of the beds we have now.

[@magdalena_dewinter]

if she doesn’t, thrift stores usually have a bunch:)

[@karachunalice3344]

What kind of fabric you used?

[@agentofhydra4087]

Hello i have a question, is it possible to add sleeves to these kinds of cloaks as well.

[@FoxtailCos]

If you want sleeves you need different type of pattern, this one won't work. it's a bit more complicated than this one, but I suggest to look in pinterest, they usually have good ideas.

[@peterviglianco136]

I have a question. I know you said 3x1.5 but how do I find the dimensions that would fit me?

[@melwilson6486]

if i need a longer cape? QnQ

[@sousavirginie1085]

on peut aussi y mettre une doublure pour l'hiver

[@sunflower6564]

Sorry I'm American would that be about 3 or 4 yards of fabric?

[@locke294]

Great video. An English tip, the word sew with a needle and thread should be pronounced like the word so. If you say the word as it is written, then you say Sue. Just to end, your English is very good.

[@FoxtailCos]

Thank you, I will keep that in mind.:)

[@gabrielramosdoc]

tkssss

[@gluttonouspawn4619]

I thought I folded my fabric the same way, and I watched the clip multiple times, but apparently not enough. My cape piece was nearly cut in half RIP. Despite this I think I can salvage it. There's a 3 in or so part where its still together and im gonna put that on the front of my neck and put the two halves over the shoulder. Ill leave an opening to be able to slip it over my head and sew it up. That's the way im going to fix it if anyone else ends up doing what I did lol.

[@Wifey424-pt5fo]

Bias tape

[@DanteVermelho23]

What kind of fabric did you used?

[@FoxtailCos]

its wool im using :)

Where do you get your fabric from?

[@FoxtailCos]

I get them in a local shop in my city.

[@Dove353]

Hi, what material did you use? Also can you suggest a nice material for a winter cape (not fleece)

[@firstnamelastname631]

Mario Jones what do you have against fleece?

[@rosebude3252]

Im laughing at myself becuase she said if you want to do d&d and i kida just laughed and said i want a cape for*cough, cough* reasons

[@NOOBATRON-bs4jo]

same lol. also needed to know shapes for putty made caps on models

[@eyb0sswelcometothericefiel752]

Yeah... I just want to stay warm with a cloak in the winters, and b/c I'm goth lol.

[@galekershner7999]

What fabric is she using???

[@buriichibakaimouto]

In a previous reply she said it is a wool and by the look of it this is a lightweight suiting. Additionally since it doesn't fray much while handling I'd wager a knit rather than woven.

[@Minerva8888]

Costplay? I wear this in my normal life

[@clemencechristophe7582]

but.... you don't show how to attach the hood to the cape..?

[@catherineblondel656]

Dommage que les commentaires ne soient pas en français

[@mariansuchi4317]

What is the fabric name? Please tell me the fabric name.. #foxtail

[@FoxtailCos]

its wool fabric. I got it in a local fabric shop.

[@mariansuchi4317]

@@FoxtailCos thanks for reply❤️❤️

[@rito0073]

I’m a bit confused, she said fold it again to where the neck should begin a triangular shape. Does that mean that I don’t fold it all the way to the end? Is that why she has a bunch left over on the end of the fabric?

[@gluttonouspawn4619]

Try doing it on paper like she said. rectangle folded to the line will leave fabric on the end like that. Idk how else to explain it.

[@williamstephens3503]

Is she talking about bias tape

[@rogerkaleugher7504]

Serbian?
