Geometric Progression
Introducing a beautifully designed poncho that is worked in the round with unique four-corner increases. This delightful poncho transitions from a cozy 1" x 9" rectangle at the neck to an impressive 25" x 33" hem, creating a stunning silhouette that flatters any figure. Crafted with fingering weight yarn on size 8 needles, this piece drapes beautifully, ensuring comfort and style with every wear.
The sample is expertly knit using Knit Picks' Stroll-Fingering yarn in elegant colorways: Black (231 yards), Dove Heather (462 yards), and Ash (400 yards), totaling just 1100 yards of luxurious superwash wool. This versatile yarn not only adds to the visual appeal but also offers easy care and durability, making it perfect for everyday wear.
To keep your knitting experience engaging, colorwork "separators" are incorporated throughout the design. Additionally, the broken rib hem, completed in complementary stripes, prevents curling and adds a polished finish. This thoughtful detail ensures your poncho maintains its beautiful shape, wear after wear.
The pattern directions are both charted and written out, providing clarity for knitters of all skill levels. This raglan-shaped poncho not only knits up quickly but also results in a stunning garment that is sure to become a favorite in your wardrobe. Whether you’re an experienced knitter or just starting your journey, you’ll enjoy the process of creating this piece.
Happy knitting, and enjoy your beautiful new poncho!
