Cut out your oval. Sew it almost all the way around, leaving room to inside it out and then hand finish the final hole. Your cape is done. Then there are the more nuanced complications that come with staging the story today. Dahl’s book has been accused of being misogynistic and antisemitic (the witches’ long noses are seen as problematic, as is the idea of a secret cabal with exceptional riches and influence).
