New Project of the Month

You probably just recieved our August newsletter in your inbox (and those of you who haven't should visit our homepage to sign up!) and saw this cute capelet designed by DC Boyd.
It uses 4, 5 or 6 balls of Rowan 4-Ply Cotton for sizes to fit bust 32-36, 38-42 and 44-48. It's knit from the top down with a garter stitch yoke. The sleeves are placed on holders and a Trellis Lace pattern (only a 4 row repeat) is worked to the waist. There is a nice, dense picot bind-off for the sleeves which creates a ruffled cap sleeve effect. Simple, cute--and perfect for the Ravelympics! Wendy has organized "Team Rosie's" for the Ravelympics. If you are on Ravelry.com visit our group for more instructions. Wendy has promised a full blog post with all the details in the coming days, so get ready for the opening ceremonies!
