Is this what you're looking for?

func capitalize(string: String, positions: IndexSet) -> String {
    let range = (0..<string.count)
    guard string.count > 0,
        positions.allSatisfy({ range ~= $0 }) else {
        fatalError("Couldn't capitalize")
    }

    return String(string.enumerated().map{ (index, char) in
        return positions.contains(index) ? String(char).capitalized.first! : char
    })
}

var str = "there are 12 months in a year"
capitalize(string: str, positions: [3, 6])  //"theRe Are 12 months in a year"

If you'd like to only count letters, and to have the counting start by 1:

func capitalize(string: String, positions: IndexSet) -> String {

    guard string.count > 0 else {
        fatalError("There is nothing to capitalize")
    }

    let zeroBasedPositions = positions.map {$0 - 1}

    guard zeroBasedPositions.allSatisfy({ $0 >= 0 }) else {
        fatalError("The positions should be one-based")
    }

    let letterIndexes = string
        .enumerated()
        .filter { (index, char) in
            CharacterSet(charactersIn: String(char))
                .isSubset(of: CharacterSet.letters)
        }.map { $0.0 }

    guard let positionsMax = zeroBasedPositions.max(),
        positionsMax <= letterIndexes.count
        else {
            fatalError("There are only \(letterIndexes.count) letters")
    }

    let lettersToCapitalizeIndexes = zeroBasedPositions.map { letterIndexes[$0] }

    return String(string.enumerated().map{ (index, char) in
        if lettersToCapitalizeIndexes.contains(index) {
            return String(char).capitalized.first!
        } else {
            return char
        }
    })
}

var str = "there are 12 months in a year"
capitalize(string: str, positions: [4, 6])  //"theRe Are 12 months in a year"
