Fan Stitch Capelet
About the Design
This capelet is warm, stylish ,and easy to crochet.
The size of the fans decrease from the shoulders to the neck, so that the capelet sits comfortably on the shoulders and hugs the neck.
It stays on the shoulders even when the pewter clasp is undone!
I used Peace Fleece Worsted as I love the heather and tweed colors. The mohair content also makes this yarn special. Or you can use your favorite heavy worsted weight yarn.
