Far from perfect having gave up with the blue Jay (opted for a dyed blue metz), taken from a Davie Mcphail pattern.

Comments welcome.

I bought an entire cape in a job lot a wee while ago Paddy, never needed it until now. It certainly gives the same effect as the Jay (see image 3) but a damn sight easier to work with.

Check with Christine at Chevron Hackles for dyed blue grizzle capes.
