The Cailleach Capelet
 
I wanted to see what bobbles would be like in a capelet, and this is how the Cailleach capelet was born.  I must say I love the rich lattice effect it has. Fit for a winter goddess and that is how it got its name. For Cailleach in Gaelic Mythology is a divine hag (old woman) associated with winter, but I like the old Irish meaning of it as “a veiled one”, which is an early loan from the Latin word pallium that translates to “a woolen cloak”, and that sums it up perfectly. 
 
It’s in my shop.
