Reversible Caplet







Two shots of the same caplet. The pattern is reversible to wear so you can do as you please. This only took 2 days to make and was very easy. I used some JoAnn Brand yarn called "Dolcetto" in pink, it took less then 2 skeins to make. Super cute.

    Hi Baigneuse! Your Anthropologie capelet looks fantastic on you! I know this is an old post, but I am just wondering if you followed the pattern as written for the capelet and used the size 11 needles, or did you make any adjustments for the yarn? I have some Dolcetto in the stash that I'd like to use for this project, but I am wondering if I should use the recommended size 10 needle or bump it up to an 11, and how the sizing would be affected? Thanks for any insight you can give!

    Thanks!

    As far as I can remember I used size 11 needles for the caplet. The results made for a very light and airy garment.

    If I had to do it again I might replace the ribbing on the edges with a seed stitch. The Dolcetto doesn't look as pretty in a K1 P1 as it does in a stockinette.

    I hope this is helpful.
