In Japan I picked up some nylon with a strawberry design, and I thought maybe I&#8217;d make a hooded rain poncho with it. After seeing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.action-hero.net\/blog\/knitblog.html\">Action Hero Melissa<\/a>&#8216;s awesome <a href=\"http:\/\/www.action-hero.net\/blog\/2007\/01\/apples-of-my-eye.html\">corduroy apple cape jacket<\/a>, though, I was inspired to use that pattern (it&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.builtbywendy.com\/onlineshop\/cart.php?target=product&#038;product_id=16669&#038;category_id=296\">this<\/a> Built by Wendy Simplicity pattern).<br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/strawberry cape.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"strawberry cape.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/strawberry cape-thumb.JPG\" width=\"300\" height=\"327\" border=\"3\" \/><\/a><\/center>Things went pretty smoothly until I got to the sleeves. They were a bit of a bear to put in, since there is no give to the nylon. I ended up with slightly puckered sleeves, but I have decided to pretend that&#8217;s the look I was going for. Also, I accidentally burned some holes in the hem of the sleeve with my iron! Doh!<br \/>\nHere are some close-up shots:<br \/>\n<center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/strawberry cape cu.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"strawberry cape cu.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/strawberry cape cu-thumb.JPG\" width=\"240\" height=\"205\" border=\"2\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/strawberry cape pocket.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"strawberry cape pocket.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/strawberry cape pocket-thumb.JPG\" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" border=\"2\" \/><\/a><\/center>I think it&#8217;s a pretty crazy jacket, and it&#8217;s not very practical, really, but I like it.
