Description: This poncho is knit top down and flat as one piece – The body of poncho is started by picking up stitches at the base of the hood so there is no piecework sewing. The colours and design are derived from a combination of the cute little Fennec Fox of the Sahara, North Africa and the more common red fox variety.

Sizing: Since this is a poncho it pretty much can fit most people from children up to adults. My 8 year son fit it quite comfortably.
