Faux Fur Poncho
Experience Level: Advanced Beginner
I am loving the Faux Fur that’s been hitting the yarn shops this fall. I worked up a few cowls, but then I wanted something especially cuddly for when it’s chillier out. This poncho answered the call! Freebie pattern on my blog because it’s not tested (by anyone but me and a few of my students, that is) and I only have the one size. There are suggestions for knitting a larger version.
