This is a great poncho/wrap to wear just about any time of the year. Make it in your most favorite color and you will be wearing it over and over again. Variegated or tweedy or “stripe-y”, and speckled yarns look great in this pattern stitch too. It is light weight, yet has warmth, free flowing on the body to accommodate just about any body shape. This poncho/ wrap would make a great gift for a friend! It is fairly easy to knit and finish, that you may want to make several in different colors to spark up your wardrobe! We used Caron Blossom Cakes, knitting needles, US # 10
