If you compare and coalate this chart with that of the Elements, and find the corresponding issues, then you will know upon which day to do a particular spell and what color to wear for that day. However, if you still feel the need for a cloak, here's the recipe: You simply cut out a half-circle of cloth with an appropriate radius (the appropriate radius would be the distance between the center of your neck and how far down you want the cloak to reach) and then cut out a half-circle for the neck (see the picture). This will give you a very nice looking cloak with excellent swirlability and outstanding snuggle-up-insideability. You can cut 2 of these, sew them together inside out and voila! you have a 2-sided cloak!! Now for the final touch. If you are nothing without a cloak, then a cloak is nothing without a hood! It gives you a real secretive look, and it's a perfect "look." Makes you look real cool and mysterious. One way to achive this is to take a piece of cloth about 1.5 x 4.0 meters and fold it double (so you get a 1.5 x 2.0 piece) and then cut out like in this picture. Make the quarter-circle the same radius as with the half-circle cloak above and make the hood about 40 cm high. You then have to sew it together along the back of the cloak and hood and then you've got yourself a hooded cloak. Another way would be to make the half-circle cloak described above and then make a separate hood. Now, hoods are a bit special. If a hood isn't made the right way it usally looks ridiculous, and to get the right fit and look you have to experiment quite a bit. Use some scrap cloth and make a couple of prototypes before you do the real hood. This picture shows a rather typical medieval hood with a liripipe (thats the long pipe sticking out from the back). The measurements given are in centimeters and not exact. Measurements vary from person to person so you'll have to test your way toward the right one. The given measurements can be used as a starting point for the first prototype. You can also vary the length of the liripipe. In the medieval days the length of the liripipe was a sign of your social standing (the longer the pipe the higher you stood). When you've cut out the two pieces you just sew them together along the red-marked edges. The best material for this kind of hood is rather thick wool, like for instance a horse-blanket or similiar material. Just experiment your way toward the perfect hood.
