Soleil is mid-sized capelet fitting close at the neck and flowing to the mid upper arm. Exposed garter stitch edges lend a rustic feel and the worsted weight yarn offers an earthy warmth.

Soleil is worked using a series of garter stitch short row segments, and is excellent practice for anyone wanting to experiment with short row shaping. This pattern also offers practice in yarn over eyelet detailing.

With its earthy charm and fluid elegance, Soleil is sure to become a fall to spring staple.
