Easy Folded Poncho Using Berroco Ultra Alpaca
The Design
Our Easy Folded Poncho is a relaxing knit and comfy wrap that's flattering on every body. And it looks and feels terrific in Berroco Ultra Alpaca. A gorgeous blend of silky alpaca and warm, resilient Peruvian Highland wool, it produces a fabric with a gorgeous drape. The alpaca drinks up dye for super-saturated colors, including solids and complex heathered shades.
To knit our original design in this slightly heavier yarn and still preserve a marvelous drape, we gauged it up and changed the stitch count. Just see our free adaptation for details.
