DARIO TUBIANA’S long, swishy cape is worked in three pieces, and it drapes beautifully over the shoulders to keep you cosy. It’s knitted in Cascade’s Superwash DK, which comes in a huge choice of shades. Dario has embellished his design with i-cords, embroidered details and fringing, worked in DK-weight yarns from his stash.
