Whether a mini poncho, shawlette, or capelet, Ponchetta is a quick knit. Great for keeping shoulders warm—and it won’t fall off!

Instructions include 2 designs in 2 sizes: a knit/purl (accordion) pattern and cables with double moss borders.

Sizes are approximate.
Each rectangle is approx. 10 x 23” /25.5 x 58.5 cm and 14 x 26” / 35.5 x 66 cm

The accordion ponchette is an easy knit for beginning knitters and is slighly larger than the cable ponchette because the cables pull in the fabric. The fabric will relax after washing and thus be a bit longer and wider than before washing.
