Skill Level: Advanced Beginner - Intermediate. This rustic garter stitch capelet is knit from side to side, using wrap and turn short rows to shape the shoulders. To knit this pattern you should know how to read a knitting pattern, and know all basic knitting skills, including the W & T technique.

Designer’s note: Here is an excellent tutorial on Wrap & Turn in garter stitch that I highly recommend if you have any questions on how it is done. https://youtu.be/SgLcPUvsLUk

Sizing: This will truly fit up to a plus size 3X as written. See 5th photo with size 3X model. There are also notes to make smaller or larger.

Supplies:

1 pair of straight knitting needles US size 13, or
1 pair of circular needles (or inter-changeable circular needles), US size 13 (I recommend using 32” circular cable).
1 Large eye tapestry needle for weaving in ends
1 Row counter (or paper and pen to keep track of row numbers and repeats)
Optional: 2-4 buttons. 2, 1” buttons work best, but you can also use a brooch, shawl pin or alternative closure for the capelet.

Yarn: Recommended Yarn is Lion Brand Scarfie yarn, Bulky weight, held double to create a super bulky weight yarn. You will need 2 skeins of 312 yards each. (If using the Scarfie yarn, because it is an ombre/self striping yarn, be sure that both skeins start at the same color so the striping happens.) You can also substitute any other super bulky weight yarn you like.

Gauge: 4 stitches = 1 Inch

Finished Measurements: After wet blocking, your capelet should measure approximate 15” in length, approximately 65” around bottom edge, and approximately 23” around the neckline edge.
