I am stitching this piece
I'd stitch all of the "fur" in appropriate shades of white or gary Wisper.

I have stitched a lot of stuff with Wisper and I know the dilemma you face :-). Because the area to be stitched is so narrow, just one shade of Wisper might not give you the shaded results shown in the model. I certainly wouldn't use more than 2 shades of Wisper tho' -- that *is* a narrow section of stitching! Of course, if the difference between white and the palest gray available is too great, you might want to go ahead and just stitch it with just the white. I have a lot of Wisper (mostly the colors suitable for pussy cats and hair) and I can't remember how pale the palest gray actually is! Also, on the woman's left -- will you be doing the underside of the cape in Wisper or in regular floss? Just curious is this is to be a fur trimmed cape or a fur trimmed and lined cape :-)!

I just had a thought that I might be able to blend one strand of DMC with one strand of wisper to get the shading. Would this work???
