Cape Cod Capelet Digital Sewing Pattern (PDF)
US$7.00
Feel like an easy-to-sew and easy-to-fit project? I got you covered! The Cape Cod Capelet is cozy and chic. The sharp yet snuggly top has raglan seams that are sewn together at the end, forming an elbow-length, roomy sleeve. The fit of the Cape Cod Capelet is very forgiving, so you can make some as gifts even if you don’t know the precise measurements of the recipients. To make it extra luxurious, you can even use merino or cashmere sweater knit fabric!
Cape Cod Capelet Features:
- Floppy cowl
- Raglan seam lines
- Roomy, elbow-length sleeves
- High-low hem
- Designed for knit fabric
- Layers feature (print only the sizes you need)
Skill Level: Beginner+
Sizes: XXS – XL (See “Size Chart” tab below for detailed measurements)
Don’t want to print and tape paper together? The Cape Cod Capelet pattern now includes an additional large format file (size A0 paper) that you can send to your print shop to print!

Choosing Your Size
- Compare your bust circumference (fullest part) to the “Body Measurements” table, choose the size that best fits your bust. If you are between sizes, choose the smaller size if you like your garment more fitted; otherwise, choose the bigger size.
- There is no need to use your waist or hip measurement to select a size
I highly recommend that you check your fit by making a test garment with inexpensive fabric that has similar weight and drape as your final garment fabric.
Material
Primary Fabric Use light to medium-weight knit fabric with 25%-100% stretch and good recovery. Sweater knit, French terry and jersey are good choices.
Fabric Requirements
Most natural fibers shrink in the wash; be sure to have enough fabric. The requirements below assume that the fabric is already pre-shrunk.

Except I did not use the cowl neck pattern piece, changed it to a cowl pattern that I like better (which involved changing the neckline shape, added 2 ” to the length

As with other Itch to Stitch patterns this was a “must have” as soon as I saw it. Also made a muslin straight away. Now on the hunt for Jersey fabric to make many more (might also make for family members too!)

Awesome pattern! Planning to make a couple of these for gifts. The capelet would be easy to fit by estimating size and length I think.

I saw the pattern on Instagram and since I wanted to make a present for a friend, I immediately bought it and had planned to make a few more for Christmas presents. It’s a fast sew but getting the narrow hem totally even isn’t easy with thin sweater knits and neither is stitching the sleeve seams exactly in the ditch on both the front and the back. Should I ever make that pattern again, I would do the hem by hand and hand baste the sleeve seams. It probably would be easier if using a sturdier fabric like a French terry. I read that compared to the test makes I saw, the hem at the front was extended by two inches and that created an oval shape I’m not keen on. The circle look of the tester versions are more appealing to me. I’m still not sure if it’s good enough for a dear friend.
