I was going through my dresser the other day, transitioning my wardrobe from warm weather to cold, and I found a sweater I never mentioned or took pictures of from 2008.
From what I remember, I made up this capelet in one night using my US 17 needles and about two – three balls of Rowan Big Wool. The pattern was part of a discussion on Craftster back in 2005 (when Craftster wasn’t overloaded with crap like it is now) and inspired by an overpriced capelet from Anthropologie’s 2005 winter catalog. I did mine in stockinette instead of reverse stockinette, decided to build up the neckline a little, and added a loop closure with a bit of i-cord and a vintage button.
