How to make a lego cape

Have you ever wanted to make your own lego cape, but could never do so because you don't know what sort of materials are needed? Well, today, I shall tell you how to make your very own lego cape!

Step 1: Getting the materials:

So one of the hardest steps is trying to get the right materials. Well, there happens to be a store called "Joann's fabrics" that has all sorts of these arts and crafts materials. Now, if you happen to see something labeled "100% cotton", that is the material you will need for the cape.



Step 2: Creating the template

After you have gotten the cotton, the next thing you need to do is design the shape of your cape. If you already have a lego cape, great, that will be much easier. Put it on a piece of paper, and trace it (unless you have a very steady hand or are using a black cape, I recommend you use a pencil). Then, cut out the paper.




Step 3: Softening the cape.

Afterwards, you'll want to make the cotton's texture much more stiff. To do that, add sugar to a pot of water, then boil it. Once it starts boiling, put the cotton inside the pot of water, then wait for a little bit until it is stiff enough. Then, place the cotton on a flat surface, flatten it out, then let it dry out in the sun.

Step 4: After your cape has dried up, trace your cape template onto the cotton. I would suggest that for the darker colors, you use a white colored pencil. Once you have finished tracing the cape, cut it out, then, rinse it under the sink.

Step 5: To soften your cape, iron it. Depending on what kind of texture you want for your cape, you can iron it for a few seconds if you want it to have a rough texture, or do it for a longer period of time if you want a softer texture, then voila! You have your new lego cape.
