    Thank you all for the nice compliments. I am so very thrilled with the cape. I will try to get pictures outside when the weather decides to cooperate.

    I can now see why art directors picked this type of cape to use in plays and movies. It's unique and really draws the eye. (if you really want to see a ton of different Inverness capes try the Ronald Howard Sherlock Holmes films, watching them has helped get through my Jones!)
    Now if the Master did wear an Inverness cape, I now know why .They are warm, waterproof and allow for very fluid movement. They look balky but, there is a freedom of movement with them that you just don't get with a normal winter/spring/fall jacket.
    Ah but there I go wandering down Baker St once more!

    i went outside last night (38 degrees F) to turn my TV antenna, and thought, "This is silly. I should be wearing my cape!" So when I went back inside, I put it on to go back outside and turn the antenna some more. (Remember the good old days before cable? I'm still there.) It kept me plenty warm, and was much less restrictive than another coat or even a jacket.

    Sara, that is just really, really beautiful. It would rocket up to the top of my "want" chart if I didn't live in subtropical Savannah. That doesn't mean I'm not going to have to have one someday. More pictures when you can!

    That's a very nice cape. Great, now I have another item on my "want to get" list.
