Neglected Project

By -

This capelet was started nearly two years ago and has been neglected. I hope to finish it this month: I have eight inches of the ten-row repeat knit, but the pattern calls for fourteen inches before knitting the collar section.

I purchased the huge hank of yarn at the Reno show in 2012 because I thought it would complement almost anything that I wear.

Yarn: Superwash wool purchased in the vendor's display at the Reno show in 2012.
Pattern: Capelet #4 in Red Heart Pattern brochure Let's Wrap
Needles: Knit Picks Options sizes 9 and 10.5

    I love the colors in that yarn too! I'm glad you've picked it up to finish it! It's nice to be reminded of the yarn market in Reno; it was wonderful.

    Beautiful colors! I can't wait to see it finished. There is a lot of shawl/cowl/wrap knitting going on right now. Spring is here and we are all getting ready for cool summer nights. Yeah right!

    Beautiful! I have two sweater UFOs I have thought about of late, but as you know, it's full-on baby knitting here. Maybe I'll finish the kick bag tonight...

    That yarn would go with anything I wear too for the most part. To help keep you motivated just remember how good it will feel to move that UFO to finished on any list!
