Echo Spring

Echo Springs is a modern lace capelet designed for effortless beauty and everyday wear. Think of it as a fresh take on a poncho—easy to slip on and go, with no wrapping, pinning, or fussing required. Luxuriate in a delicate yet approachable wavy lace motif that’s worked only every sixth round, creating a rhythmic, relaxing knit with plenty of visual payoff. When worked in a mini-skein fade pack or gradient yarn, the waves truly come alive, gently echoing across the fabric as the colors shift. Short rows are used to extend and shape the lace, allowing the pattern to bloom gracefully while maintaining an elegant drape. Multiple options for beginning and ending the capelet give you the freedom to customize the fit and finishing details to suit your personal preferences. Echo Springs is a joyful project from cast-on to bind-off—light, flowing, and quietly captivating. It’s the kind of piece that brings yarn to life and feels just as lovely to knit as it does to wear. **Size** One Size (with length modifications for the perfect fit) Circumference - Neck: 22”/56 cm & Bottom Edge: 128”/325 cm Depth - Lace Peak: 13”/33 cm & Lace Valley: 17.5”/44.5 cm **Yarn** 798 yds/730 m in a fingering weight yarn — a fade set or gradient yarn is not required but does look extra awesome with the waves in this pattern *Recommended Yarn* Miss Babs Gradient Set of 6 Yummy 2-Ply Toes (100% Merino Wool) 798 yds/730 m, 200 g in Scenic Overlook **Needles & Notions** US 4/3.5 mm – 24”-60+”/60-150 cm – I combined cords using a connector as the circumference grew (or needles needed to obtain gauge!) 32+ stitch markers Tapestry needle **Techniques to Indulge In** Knitting in the round Provisional CO (optional) Short rows Simple lace Picot edge BO (optional)
