Sweetly simple in form but with a hip, modern vibe, the Poincaré Poncho begs to be curled up in. A ribbed, foldover collar and hand slits make this poncho a cozy choice. Worked in the round from the top down, this poncho features a standout front cable panel with diamond-shaped twists that devolve into simple ropes and ribbing.
