Indigo Frost is a great little capelet/poncho worked seamlessly from the top down, with a loose turtle neck and an easy 4 Color-Slip-Stitch pattern band on the yoke. Eyelets on the body, the cute, deep 2x1 ribbings for the neck and the bottom edge, and its shorter length make this capelet a modern take on a classic transitional fashion piece.
