We made upcycled hoodies!

I want these to feel like a magical cloak of comfort that will snuggle you right through your day. And, you're charming. So we're calling these the Charm Cape.

Many of these hoodies (unless they're vintage) are a cotton / poly blend, which tilts our balance away from all natural fibers. Still, I believe they are absolutely worth saving, and we are having a ball doing it. I hope that wearing them is as much fun as making them has been.

Charm Capes are worn layered and open, with the option to tie the hood strings in a knot or bow if you would like. They are cut to land around the hip, and they have a softly curved front hem. If the original sweatshirt had a hood, we leave it as is, and for the crewneck sweatshirts we have sewn new hoods.

This Charm Cape was created from a cotton / poly blend sweatshirt in dove grey. there is dye patterning and variation throughout. The pockets, hood and appliques are stitched from cotton in a moon print that I over dyed in periwinkle. The bias binding and hood strings are made from cotton in deep ocean blue.

Before being upcyled, the graphic on this sweatshirt read "Save the earth because it is the only planet with dogs." It was in glitter letters. I think the hoodie is cuter now, but I fully agree with that sentiment and wanted to pass it along <3

This Cape features:

Overdyed moon fabric
Fully lined cotton hood
Large lined pockets
Hand made bias tape
Rounded front hem
Our original hand printed & written tag

The best way to ensure a good fit for you & your Flux Bene is to flat measure a similar garment that fits you well (however you like a garment to fit). Compare the full chest / waist / hip measurements to the measurements listed on the tag in the final photo.

Because all materials have been pre-washed, you don't need to worry about your Flux Bene shrinking or stretching. All are machine washable and can be tumble dried.

All Flux Bene pieces are One-of-a-kind, Zero-waste, and Gender neutral.
