This Dragonpine Designs pattern was designed by Cathy Frauts and Judy Turner.

This versatile pullover-style poncho is knit in one piece with a provisional cast-on for the neck, then the neck stitches are put back onto the needles and knit around to the desired length. There is a central and outer rib detail, and decorative buttons along the side. Knit in a worsted weight yarn, this poncho knits up quickly and provides great warmth. Three sizes are available so a matching set can be made for the whole family!
