New knitting design: Rosaura cowl-capelet

It has been a while since I bought this yarn but I was sure this yarn would look great on a knit project. I decided to do a cowl-capelet combo design.
It is knit on US 10.5 (6.5 mm) circular needles from the top down in one piece with 2 strands of sport weight yarn held together throughout. Chunky lace and cables gives this design an interesting texture. You can dress up any outfit with it!!

It features pearl buttons for closure. As you can see, you can play around how to button them up. You can fully crossed the neckband and it will hug your neck on a chill day, if you fasten all 5 buttons on the edge you can wear it as a capelet, and finally for those special occasions when you need to look more sophisticated, just fasten a button and you’ll have a pretty collar to emphasize your shoulder.
