The Shortwave capelet is a small cape, or large cowl, depending on how you wear it. It is knit sideways around the body, and shaped with simple short-rows.

Shortwave features a chunky cabled detail along the top and bottom edges. The super-bulky weight yarn makes this a quick and easy knit. You will definitely stand out in this bold design.
