If you’d like to see full information about this pattern, please visit http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/spinnaker-capelet . . . . . . .

This pattern is both fully written and fully charted; I've included a schematic as well. The lace pattern reminds me of a spinnaker sail, ballooned full of air. This garment is an ideal combination of cowl and cape; it covers your shoulders and upper arms and stays put while you move. . Requirements: • Approx 545, 635[725, 815, 905]m/595, 695[795, 895, 995] yd (366m/400yd per 100g/3.53 oz skein)
The Spinnaker Capelet is a knitted shoulder wrap that combines the functionality of both a cowl and a cape. This versatile garment covers the shoulders and upper arms while remaining secure during movement. The neckline offers adjustable styling options: it can be worn as a deep cowl or adjusted upward into a snood that provides coverage for the neck and ears. The design is inspired by the billowing shape of a spinnaker sail, with the lace pattern creating a visual resemblance to fabric caught full of air.
This intermediate-level knitting project features lace work combined with frequent beading throughout the pattern. The lace pattern is designed to be intuitive and pleasant to knit, despite the regular beading placement and minimal rest rows. The combination of lace stitches and seed bead embellishment creates both visual interest and textural depth in the finished capelet.
Yarn: Approximately 545 to 905 yards (depending on size), worked in a fingering-weight yarn. The pattern specifies Zen Yarn Garden "Serenity 20" in the colorway Jakey for the blue version, which is composed of 70% superwash merino, 20% cashmere, and 10% nylon, with 366 meters (400 yards) per 100-gram skein.
Beads: Approximately 820 to 1,350 Miyuki 6/0 seed beads (depending on size), with approximately 12 to 17 beads per gram. The blue version uses Miyuki 6/0 seed beads in colorway 6-752.
Needles and Tools: Knitting needles appropriate for fingering-weight yarn and beading supplies for attaching seed beads during the knitting process.
The Spinnaker Capelet is available in multiple sizes with corresponding finished measurements provided in the pattern schematic.

Tell us what you think about it.
The wool seems to be knitting fine though I'd expected it to be slightly softer as a merino. However it has worked fine and the pattern has been ok to follow (a challenge for me as I've never knitted on a circular needle before or knitted in beads on a garment).
