...which is why I don't bother with an ankle-length cloak. Because it will be shifting when worn, it's futile to try make the hem a consistant length from the floor. I generally assume that nobody will be looking that closely at the cloak's hem. For a shorter cloak, I *would* take the time to even out the hem, but there's much less fabric to swing into the wrong place in that case.
