Notes:

1. Read instructions all the way through before beginning.
2. Capelet in photo is crocheted of Red Heart Super Saver – Orchid
3. If you choose to change colors, complete the last pull through of the last stitch with the new color. Then tie a square knot and using your tapestry needle weave the old color in and out of the back loop of the previous row. You can pull the old color enough to hide the knot inside the dc dec of the previous row. After crocheting several stitches use your tapestry needle to weave the new color in and out of the back loop of this row. Or use your preferred method.
