Quote:I made a mock up of a full circle cloak. It used an enormous amount of fabric, most of which around the feet where it did little good.
Math tells us: if you make a full circle paenula with 1.5m radius you will have (2x3.1415x1.5=) almost 9.5m !!! of cloth dangling around your feet - what in heaven or hell would you want to have that for? Frankly, I see no sense in that, but maybe I'm missing something ...
