This pattern could easily be made with fingering to worsted weight yarn. By simply adding more repeats of the charts you can make poncho as large as you wish.
Pattern includes charts and explanation of all the methods used: reading charts, basic decreases (ssk; k2tog; ssp; p2tog; sl 1, k2tog, psso), increase M1. The oaken leaf pattern is easy to memorize. The leaf tips are the hardest part, but the pictures helped a lot (according to testers). The written instruction is a step by step instruction how to make an poncho.
Please note: the stitch pattern in this poncho is charted only.
Each chart is shown where it fit in the pattern and on its own page.
