Elvis.
He was amazing. His music, his style and his decadence. Recently I visited Graceland and was astounded by the rich colors and textures that fill the estate. I loved his dazzling jewel-encrusted jumpsuits and capes. I knew immediately that I needed to knit myself a cape-like shawl in his favorite color. I opted to use knitted stitches to create interest rather than rhinestones. I chose stitch patterns inspired by the decorations in his house.

Knit yourself this shawl and be wrapped in the luxurious blend of alpaca, silk and linen. Imagine yourself sitting in the common room aboard the Lisa Marie, jet-setting with the King.
