It has amazing replay value because of this and I would love to play it again.

I Made Link’s Cape from BOTW into a Hoodie!
Today is me and my fiancé’s three year anniversary. I wanted to make him something really special, so I decided to make him something from scratch. He’s been playing Breath of the Wild lately and I decided to make him a hoodie based on Link’s cape. Continue reading “I Made Link’s Cape from BOTW into a Hoodie!”
