Work the cape from the hood down so sizing is easy to adjust. The bat ears are stiffened triangles sewn firmly to the hood — a little stuffing helps them stand. Keep the cape fabric with some drape; a slightly larger hook gives better flow.

Care Instructions
Hand wash gently in cool water, reshape the ears, and air dry flat or hanging. Avoid wringing. Store hanging or folded with the ears unstressed.
