The April Evening Capelet was created for Wildflower Yarns and Knitwear in Manhattan, KS, and the pattern is available FREE with purchase of Pehuen in the shop! Also available for purchase in my Etsy shop for those not in the vicinity of Kansas.

The piece is knit from the top down with two skeins of Pehuen, in a moderately easy repeating ribbed lace pattern. There is shaping from the beginning to the shoulders, then straight on from there (the photographs show it off the shoulder, but I really meant it to be worn ON the shoulder, and it would be easily adjusted to fit closer to the neck if desired - instructions included). It is closed at the front with a simple crochet chain threaded through a decorative bead, but I think it would also look darling with a ribbon tie or a button. Very customizable! The perfect thing for a mild spring evening on the town.
