THIS - I MADE FOR MY DAUGHTER - WE ARE A WOOLOPHOBIC  HOUSEHOLD SO I ONLY WORK WITH COTTON - THIS IS COMPLETELY HANDKNITTED (IF YOU ARE A KNITTER YOU WILL SEE THIS WAS NOT STRAIGHTFORWARD AS A PATTERN AND TOOK 50 HOURS AT LEAST TO CREATE).....I HAND SELECTED THE FIBRES, I USED ANTIQUE BUTTONS (THAT WERE BACK THEN ABOUT £10 A BUTTON.....AND THAT WAS 2 DECADES AGO).....SHE WANTED FREEDOM HAND HOLES (NOT POCKETS)  .......IT'S BEAUTIFUL, IT'S CHUNKY, IT'S HEAVY AND WARM AND IT REALLY IS A UNIQUE PONCHO/CAPE.  

I THINK IT WOULD WORK FROM AGE 5......(APPROX 47CM ACROSS SHOULDER AREA - LENGTH 60CM) ACTUALLY I COULD STILL CARRY IT OFF AS A SHORT CAPE.....IF SOMEBODY LOVES IT - ......IT NEEDS A SPECIAL GIRL AND NEEDS TO BE SEEN AND SWIRLED IN......THE COLLAR ITSELF IS A SNUGGLE KINGDOM....JUST SAYING!
