The Crochet Hooded Cloak/Cape, Crochet Tutorial part 1. Costume, Halloween Crochet

[@cynthiacornell1718]

Without the hood it's a lovely shawl that won't easily fall off. The hood is a bonus. Good job teaching a great base concept that can probably be applied to a variety of favorite stitches!

Thanks Cynthia!

So, I've made this cloak a few times and I have to say I really love it. Every time I want to make a new cloak, either for myself or as a gift, I always end up turning back to this tutorial at some point just to make sure I'm not self-sabotoging myself as I go. Thank you so much for posting this video and sharing this wonderful art with the world! People like you are what keeps the crochet and other fabric-based communities alive!

I was scared to make a cloak, I haven't crocheted long most other patterns worried me but this made it look so simple. I think watching it be made and explained along the way is better for me to understand rather than reading it.

I'm working on this right now in a blue ombre yarn and I can't wait to wear it!

Maybe even a little trim around the edges.

[@youllneverknow103]

Did you do 32 increase rounds? Because I really like the length of yours and am just wondering

[@Jimmbleton]

I finished the cloak to the length I wanted, but it doesn’t “drape” the way I expected.. its sort of stiff and instead of falling over my shoulders it stays in the same shape. idk what to do

[@crochet.with.illjay]

Different fibers and textures will drape differently, tension also can be a factor. But for now, try washing the cloak. If you used a stiff acrylic or cotton this will help.

[@Jimmbleton]

@@crochet.with.illjay ok i will try that. thanks 😊

i was trying to figure out what part we are starting on so i know how long mine should be! i think its the neck we are straing at right? hopefully thats right so im not making the whole thing too small 😅😂

[@LifeInABoxorigin]

Hello! :) Your cape is lovely. Do you have any idea (currently) if it would work to follow your pattern with a sport/fingering weight yarn? I bought some bamboo yarn and it's sooo perfect for this. :)

[@crochet.with.illjay]

Hi, yes I think it could be translated for sport weight fairly easily. You would need to do a few extra ch to starts. As long as it’s a multiple of 6 should still work up I think!

[@LifeInABoxorigin]

@@crochet.with.illjay Oh that's wonderful! Thank you. :)

[@texasbandera7320]

I love the yarn that you used and the color! Did you order the yarn or did you have a store where you bought it and was it expensive?

[@melissagodwin1594]

I actually just picked up this exact yarn in a different color to make this cloak. It is a Hobby Lobby brand and normally costs $5.49 per 300 yard skein. But Hobby Lobby’s entire yarn section is 30% off every other week. This week what I call an “off week.” The yarn will be on sale again starting next Monday (Oct. 30). The stores are closed on Sundays, but the website is always open. And I believe the sales online change on Sunday.

[@roselalilianagilsamaniegom8642]

I'm loving this tutorial 🥰 I do have one question tho! I'm just starting this cloak in a super fine yarn with a 4mm hook, I wonder if I could do the increases in multiples of 12 or should I stick to multiples of 6? Thank you so much it means a lot!! ❤️

[@crochet.with.illjay]

Hi Rosela, thanks for watching. I would stick to increasing in multiples of 6 and just start with a longer foundation ch.

Could I use any of the following yarn Caron simply soft? Comfy cotton blend? Truboo? Cake yarns? But I especially would like to Use Caron simply soft as well should work just as good to right

What increase did you stop on?

[@vella8650]

I’m using a somewhat bulky yarn that uses a 8 mm hock. Will that be okay? It’s not super bulky, just more than your yarn

[@crochet.with.illjay]

You can use that yarn, your stitch count will be different though. If you can apply the same basic concept- start with a multiple of 6 and do 6 increases, it should work up similarly.

[@vella8650]

A multiple of 6, so like 66 instead of 68? I’m pretty new to crochet.

[@JessicaBeebe-w6q]

So you said you end each row with the two double crochet before starting a new row. I don’t think I’m repeating 6 times like you said but I’m doing this smaller to create like a carrying cloak for my infant child. Anyways, my point is, is that when I’m finishing a row I’m doing the pattern like instructed and then I have 5 or 6 stitches left before the end of the row. So I’ve been doing the two double crochet even though I just did the increase 5 or 6 stitches prior to.

[@Eryplayz]

I have a question. If I were using a bigger yarn size than you, should I keep all the amounts of chains the same or should I decrease the amount of chains?

[@crochet.with.illjay]

Bigger yarn will make bigger stitches, you will need less stitches per row and less rows. How many? you will just have to trial and error I have not tried yet.

[@gathele]

Hi! what a beautiful project. I have a question, at which row you stopped increasing? you increased in all 32 rows?

[@crochet.with.illjay]

Hi! I increased for about 25 rows, then continued without increasing. Check out part 2 for final specs. Link in description

[@pia-ceciliebay380]

Hi, it's so beautiful. I am confused about the size though. How many ch for adult medium size ? In the written recipe it says measure the neckline and multiple with 2,5. That is a lot more ch ?

[@crochet.with.illjay]

Hi Pia, I ch 66(+2) for an adult medium. Any other multiple of 6(+2) will work. I am updating the pattern so that sizing is more clear. Any difference in gauge, yarn, and hook size will also affect the size cape. There are a lot of variables and it’s best to make a chain, and measure against yourself to see if it works for you. You will get a pattern update in email when it’s ready.

[@luckycarebear9406]

What size is 68?

[@natalietanner9022]

When do you know to stop increasing? Do you have to stop at 25-40 rows?
