Cleopatra 2009

How would the famed "Femme Fatale" appear today?

Still commanding attention, for sure! Now, it's YOUR turn in a "Cleo" (may I call her that?) inspired capelet and head-covering complete with beads and bone-like buttons (from Italy, no less!) I found this enchanting pattern in an old crochet book and it tugged at my heartstrings until I made it. Enjoy!

Just Call Me "Red"!

Red is such a wonderful color! It's vibrant, powerful, and passionate and if you're going to wear it, get ready to be noticed.

Crochet cape with over-sized hood in, of course, BRIGHT RED! I used satin cording for curtains that I found at Hancock's and used it for the drawstring. Sold on Monday and off to live with a nice young lady in MI. :-)
