Meet the Vanrey Voules Vouz Capelet Pattern! Designed to accompany the 2025 ABBA “Advent-ure” box for The Fiber Genie. This 70’s-inspired accessory captures the drama and shimmer of disco nights with modern knitting flair.

Worked in DK-weight yarn, the capelet features a golden main color paired with 14 mini skeins for a stunning gradient or textured stripe effect. Construction includes five elegant eyelet increase spines that shape the shoulders beautifully and highlight a centered back spine for perfect drape and symmetry.

Whether you wear it with your fav flare jeans or your best wrap dress, the Voules Vouz Capelet will have you saying, “My, my, how can I resist you?”
