The Arbor Poncho creates a 3 prong “vine” detail along the bottom. Besides the “special” stitch detail at the bottom, the poncho is made up using knit, purl and slip stitches. The special stitches video may be found on our YouTube channel.

The poncho is knit in a rectangle and seamed along the edges, leaving an opening for the wearer’s head. It has 2 options for beginning and end detail and built in I-cord edges.

Arbor poncho will knit up quickly with larger needles. Talara is very drapey & has a chainette construction to help with splitting.
