The Mosswood Poncho is a quick-knit pattern that is perfect for easy layering in cool weather. The front features bold cables and crochet bobbles running up the center on a reverse stockinette background and a simple ribbing and slip stitch edging on the sides. The back is solid reverse stockinette. After the shoulders are seamed, a large, cozy hood is knit featuring reverse stockinette and the same ribbing and slip stitch edging. Knit up in Berroco Mercado, an affordable aran weight yarn, available in a variety of earthy shades. Mosswood is the perfect project for knitting and styling in the winter months!
