Vintage Crocheted Cape



My grandmother handed me this pattern the other day, with its aged yellow paper, and asked if I would make her this cape. She's the one who taught me to crochet a little over 11 years ago, and she loves seeing my work. She especially likes the shawls I make for her, and is always telling about the compliments people give her for them at church and in the grocery store. I tried my hardest to find a date on this, but I couldn't find one. My grandmother said her mother gave it to her, and that it's from the 70s. If you wanted to buy books from the company that published this pattern it only cost 50 cents!

I have photographed the pattern for you below:
