    Inverness Cape

    I've read all the threads on making Inverness Capes.

    I live in South Carolina, so I don't need a cape like a person in Scotland would wear

    What I have in mind is using my rain cape as a pattern, and making an unlined cape from some relatively heavy material. Maybe a black cotton twill, or something. I would want it to be functional and comfortable -- something to wear camping.

    EDIT: My question is: would using an Inverness Rain Cape as a pattern for making a fabric Inverness Cape produce a usable garment that didn't look silly?
