    There are a few knitted techniques that bring me more joy than seems possible.  Top down, seamless, raglan knitting is one of my favorite ways of knitting clothing.  I have tried knitting separate pieces before but I wasn't satisfied with the final results.  Almost all of the top down projects that I've completed have been successes.  Recently added to my closet is the Top Down Button Front Capelet.  The pattern is Free from Bernat.

    I used Patons Shetland Chunky Tweeds in Earthy Brown.  I love the feel of the yarn and the way it knits up so quickly. I will wear this.
