Leaving off the arm openings of Red Riding Hood pattern

Hello ladies,

First of all thank you for all the wonderful photos on the flickr page-it's so inspiring!

For a while I have wanted to make a Red Riding Hood Cape for my daughter who turns two on Monday. Recently I saw a photo of the cape on a younger girl and noticed that the arm openings were too low for her despite her mother having altered the pattern to fit better. Since my girl is still young for the recommended age, I wondered if I could just leave the arm openings away? That way it wouldn't matter if the cape were a bit big. Do you think that would work?? I am afraid of shifting the arm openings up and then having it not fit..and even if I could make it work now it might not fit anymore when she is older.

Sorry for the rambling but I'm a bit stuck.

Thank you! Marjolijn
