Fairhaven Poncho
Introducing one of the snuggiest ponchos to ever grace the knitting world! It is created with #7 Jumbo Weight yarn, worked in ribs and twists which serve to bump the warmth and coziness of the piece to incredible levels. This is for all those times it would be so nice to stay snuggled inside a blanket wherever the day may lead!
Items Needed
Loom: Zippy Looms assembled to allow for 52 pegs— can be 12 Zippy looms, with 4 Zippy corners, or 13 Zippy looms in a row…can also be knit with only 10 Zippy looms with 4 corners, or 11 Zippy looms in a row, if the side panels are worked separately and then seamed into place during finishing.
Yarn: approx. 440 yards #7 Jumbo Weight (Sample uses 9.5 skeins of Red Heart Grande in Wisteria, 46 yds per skein, 78% acrylic, 22% wool.) Note: it is suggested to use a yarn with a wool blend to help in blocking the pullover to the desired size.
Gauge: 4.5 sts x 9 rows = 4 inches
Finished Size: This design is either very stretchable or has more swing, which allows for just about all women’s sizes. This is why using a wool/wool blend yarn for blocking to the size desired is helpful.
Notions: Loom tool, yarn needle, scissors. (Also helpful: cable needle, peg markers, row counter, knitting pins and blocking pins)
