Berroco Barachois is a cozy
women’s capelet knit in Ultra Alpaca Chunky. The capelet features easy cables
and a deep turtleneck. Barachois is knit from the bottom up in the round after the
split hem. Berroco Ultra Alpaca Chunky is a soft blend of superfine alpaca and
Peruvian wool. Ultra Alpaca Chunky is the bulky weight cousin of the
much-beloved Ultra Alpaca in a similar range of heathered colors. This yarn is
an attractive and affordable choice for quick, warm projects such as hats, mittens,
blankets, and even sweaters. The cable pattern is charted and written out.
