Once upon a time, a few years ago, I had an infatuation with Twinkle knits. They looked so high fashion, and had the allure of being knit quickly. I bought enough Twinkle Soft Chunky for the Best Friend Cardigan, but alas, I was still new to sweater construction and the instructions were confusing. So eventually, instead of the Best Friend Cardigan, I knit the Princess Capelet. It was fast, it was cute (especially the pom-poms). It was hard to figure out what to wear with it without looking ridiculous.
Fast forward to today: I saw something very similar at Anthropologie. It's listed as a Tulip Sleeve Cardigan, $228 from Twinkle Knits. It's a bit longer, the sleeves don't end quite the same, and this one has no pom-poms, but I'm excited, because that means the time is now for my little capelet. If I were ever to wear it, the time is now. If I could only figure out what to wear with the durn thing.
Jeans and a tee shirt? (That may or may not be my answer to what to wear with any knitted garment.)
