Tutorial: Girls’ faux fur capelet

Cheryl from Sew Can Do created this beautiful faux fur capelet as a wrap for her daughter to wear over a winter dress. It covers the arms and keeps warm without covering up the entire dress. She shares a tutorial showing how she made it. It’s made of a soft Cuddle fabric. It’s lined, with the edges of the Cuddle fabric wrapping for a more finished look. If you need a warm layer for your child to wear over a winter dress, you can use her tutorial to make one.
