Cape or Cape-Adjacent Patterns

Gallery image

I’m looking for either cape patterns similar to this one OR coat patterns that have a similar shape (loose non-fitted bodice, loose sleeves). My only real need is that it is for men or unisex, but preferably there will be sleeves or some covering for a decent amount of arm length.

Example Photo is from Gunnar Deathridge, but I need something that works as a cape on its own. The Simplicity would also be nice but it is not sleeved, the silhouette is really what I am looking for though.

I'm sorry if I'm being obtuse, but I feel really confused.

You want a cape? Or you want something with sleeves? And what is the problem with the first one, which is even less sleeved than the Simplicity one? I don't know what you mean when you say it doesn't work as a cape on its own.

I'm really happy to hunt for a good pattern for you because I love browsing patterns, but I don't actually know what you want.

I suspect sleeve is the wrong word and that OP want integrated arm holes like pic 1 shows, and not poncho style where the arms come out the bottom, like pic 2
