The Design

"Like a really elegant sweatshirt."

Our Easy Folded Poncho gets a subtle, yet stunning, makeover with this gorgeous cable adaptation. The inset braided cable adorns the edge of our simple ponchodressing up our already ‘elegant sweatshirt' and adding interest to your knitting!

Knit in the cloud-soft Blue Sky Fibers Baby Alpaca, this poncho has a universally flattering appeal. Just the right amount of drape and weight that feels so good on. Wear the cabled detail strikingly across your neck and shoulder, or gracefully along the lower edgeyour design decision. It is merely a matter of choosing which side to seam. (Note: we seamed it both ways in the photos so you can see the two  options...it's hard for us to pick a favorite!)
