I'm sure this is the wrong forum, but I was wondering if anyone had a pattern or such of the suede hood worn by Russell Crowe in Robin Hood? I am looking to make one for those days when it's a little drizzly outside during a hunt.

these are pretty easy to make and are basically a small cloak just worn on the shoulder I wear mine under
my waxed cloak as the leather keeps the rain from soaking in on the flattest spot there. you are cutting a
circle of fabric 24 inches in diameter with a space for a head cut in or just cutting two side profiles and sewing together.
will pm a website with a pattern

I made my own pattern using these instructions. Just cut two of them out and sew them together. You can line it, but I didn't line mine.
