Lithodora Poncho has the feel of a light shawl but with all the practicality of a poncho. Dress down with shorts and sandals at the beach or pop it over a summer dress as the sun falls.

Manos Del Uruguay Serena is a very light DK yarn, so if substituting use a sport weight or 4ply yarn. Cotton/wool blends or a pure alpaca would work well.

Skills used
Basic stitches, working into chain spaces, working in the round, chainless foundation row (optional, instructions given)
