With this pattern you can create a beautiful open structured baby poncho.

You’ll need one skein of the Moeke Yarns Elena natural yarn, plus five mini skeins from the Spring 2015 colour collection: Mulberry, Fern, Latte, Brick Red and Coral have been used in the original poncho.

Once the baby gets into toddler or child age, you can easily add a couple more squares at the bottom to lengthen it. If you plan to do so, make sure to save the left over yarn bits.

There’s also a ladies version of this poncho. and there was a child’s version of the poncho which is no longer available.
