Easy crochet capelet

Thank you for all your color suggestions for my throw. I’m still not sure about the color I’ll choose, but I hope to finish the circles in the next day or two, so a decision must be made. Ill keep you posted!

Yesterday, whilst scouring through my stash to see what yarn I had, I came across six balls of bulky yarn I’d purchased a couple of years ago. Languishing. Not suitable for a throw. But so squishy and soft. Pleading with me to crochet them.

And.

So.

I.

Did.

Cold shoulders?

You need a capelet…

And afterwards, you need a kiss…Easy Crochet Capelet

Use 12ply yarn and a 10mm hook.

Round 18: Sc 2 together x 4, Sc in the next 33 stitches, Sc 2 together x 4, Sc in next 33.

Round 19: Sc 2 together x 4, Sc in the next 29 stitches, Sc 2 together x 4, Sc in next 29.
