Hi, I know there have been some patterns floating around here before, but for some reason can't find them now! Does anyone have any patterns for the outer and inner robes, or a pattern that I can base them off of? Thanks!

I looked everywhere for weeks and couldn't find anything. Seems like more people have these robes made at a seamstress than at home.
Here is a pattern we used as the base of the outer robes and heavily modified it. http://www.simplicitynewlook.com/6073/#.U9RUe77n9eV Drew it out longer, got rid of the opening in the front, closed it all up except for the one side, etc. It's not easy but it's a start!

Thank you! I'll have to check that out! And about how much fabric would it take, I'm 5'8", and I'll be making another for someone that's 6'.
