Biotayarns Capelet, handspun, handknit artisan yarns, wool shoulder cape

Biotayarns "Copper Butterfly" Capelet is knit from handspun artisan yarns is a size medium/large.

This capelet is created from Shetland wool fleece with a sprinkle of Kid Mohair raised and sheared here at Dakota Carding and Wool. The wool is washed, carded and spun in South Dakota. Knitting the capelet is the final step in the 'fleece to shawl' process.

A variety of natural brown tones are intertwined with colorful additions of copper, purple & green in this hand spun, hand knit wool blend capelet. The natural colored brown wool & mohair is woolen spun into a bulky yarn with shades of purple, rust and green silk bits twisted together throughout.  The yarn is then knit into a comfy shoulder wrap designed to be worn over lighter clothing and/or under a coat with collar peeking out.

The Shetland wool locks & the kid Mohair are natural colored brown and are blended and carded into a cloud at Dakota Carding and Wool Co. I am honored to be able to spin these natural fibers into yarns for knitting, weaving or crocheting projects.

This medium/large sized cape measures 17" tall from folded collar to middle point at the back and 24" wide across (side to side).  This circular shaped capelet is secured in the front with a copper colored button.

Please hand wash this garment with a mild soap, rinse and then lay flat to air dry.

Thank you for looking at this hand made cape.
