If you’re thinking “capelet” sounds like some lost relic of the Victorian age, you’re not far off.

Before Wonder Woman was ever painted on the page, capes were a staple in historical fashion.

The capelet is a variation, that traditionally hit just at the waist, making it much shorter than an average cape. It became popularized in the Victorian era.

A capelet today can refer to anything originating from a cape silhouette but that is shorter in length.

This high neck capelet will have you feeling posh with a contemporary spin on a very classic garment.  

This is such a cute piece that can go over any sweater to add an extra layer of warmth.

You’ll be working in the round, so this is a great, beginner friendly project that will help you work out some new crochet techniques.
