Today I finished this capelet, designed by Barbara Benson.

It was a breeze to knit up. I enjoyed working a combination of mosaic and lace stitches. My colors are deep green and bold rust. I’m glad that I was finally able to use the Knit Picks Gloss yarn that I purchased nearly ten years ago. It had been in a shrug, which didn’t look good on me and felt scratchy on my neck. Since this capelet stands away from the neck, scratchiness isn’t a problem.

Sorry about the shadow on the photograph above.
Now that I have it on, I have to admit it is not the most useful article of clothing that I ever knit. But it’s fine for sedentary activities when reaching your arms up is not required. And it’s not as warm as a shawl. (Yeah, the back of my neck is exposed.)
I can’t help but like it, because it’s pretty and graceful.
This pattern is available on Ravelry. I rate it a five for quality of design and clarity of instructions.

P.S. I couldn’t leave this post without including a picture of me in my new Isochronal Capelet!
