This lightweight capelet is like a swath of jewels draping the neck and shoulders. By being enhanced with a sequence of lace motifs circling its border this simple cashmere cape becomes a luxurious fashion accessory. It’s called the Earth and Sky Cowl because the Twin Leaf Lace and Vine Lace patterns along the bottom edge reminded me of tree trunks and wild vines reaching upward toward the sky

It uses Cashmere 2, 1 skein in color H33 and 1 skein in color 261.
