In the Garden Pattern

This feminine, circular capelet, worked in a decorative lacy stitch, is all you need when you take your leisurely stroll through the garden.

Worked in the round, from the top down, it is shaped through a series of regular increases. The generous lower edge, interspersed with Garter Stitch, finishes with a leafy border.
