Confession: I've never actually seen an episode of Gossip Girl. In fact, I didn't even know who Blair Waldorf was until someone mentioned her in a comment several posts ago. Well I Googled her, and the girl's got style! I was particularly inspired by this photo of her in the cutest capelet ever. Obviously, I had to make my own..... While this is not a no-sew project, like my last cape, it's almost as easy! 1) I started with a long rectangle of delicious fabric (that my mom got for $.75 at a thrift store!) , that was 14"x66". 2) Then I pleated the top. 9 pleats, aprox. 2.5" each, and right up against each other, leaving about 5" on each side. 3) I sewed a basting stitch along the top of the pleats, to hold them together.... 4) Then I trimmed the two front edges to make them curved. 5) Measure from one end of the cape to the other (minus the top), and cut the length of ribbon you need. 6) Sandwich the edge of the cape in the middle of the ribbon, and pin well. 7) Sew the ribbon on.

If you cut 2 pieces, sew them together like I did below. Then I folded my contrasting fabric in half and placed the sweater piece on top. I cut the lining fabric a little bigger in case the sweater stretched a little bit while sewing the pieces together. Place the sweater and lining fabric together with right sides facing.
