NOTES
Poncho is worked in the round from the neck down. A long circular needle is necessary to accommodate the large number of stitches.
Please note that Berroco Artisan contains 20% silk. This yarn may stretch slightly when you wash or wear it. Wash your swatch for best gauge results.
It helps to have a different color stitch marker for the marker that marks the beginning of the round. It makes it easier to keep track of rounds.
Changing to a larger size needle to work the ribbing at the bottom edge of the poncho is recommended so that the fabric does not pull in along the bottom edge.
