I'm looking for something with arm slots like this :

and something that would work out to be about this length:

this would actually be my ideal pattern:

but knit from the top down. I must figure it out. I must find a way to do this... I might have to improvise. We'll see.
I came across some old pictures I never posted up from my work christmas party so I put em up. A little dated but, whatever!




Thank god its not as cold as it was on this night anymore.

Love the capes! I love the bottom one--it looks like it'd be pretty easy to re-write top-down.
Barbara Walker's book Knitting from the Top is great for figuring out your own pattern and knitting from the top. She actually has a cape in there too.
