Quape

1. (n) an Algonquin hand-made, pioneer-style, blanket made from old shirts which may also be used as a cape.
2. (n) synonym of Slanket or Snuggie

A commonly known fact is that the Snuggie is the invention of the millennium. What most people don't realize is the concept was derived by native American's who used blankets as capes, which were called quapes and invented in the 17th Century.
