This delectable confection spun from cashmere and silk will satisfy any sweet tooth.
COWL-NECK CAPELET
This cashmere-and-silk-blend yarn from Tanglewood Fiber Creations is hand spun and hand dyed, resulting in a fiber that is truly one of a kind. I kept the design simple to not compete with the yarn, but threw in a few twists. The neckline is worked back and forth, gradually adding stitches to create a plunging cowl neck, and two stitch patterns provide textural contrast.
