The Newell poncho.
From the rolled neckline created raglan style, to the mock cable stitch and stacked lace stitch pattern, all get knitted in the round. Then the project gets split up to be knitted flat in relaxing garter stitches with one specially arranged “Yarnology “skein that has color, textured and weight changes all worked in. Another striking detail is the single crochet edge created around the middle opening accessorized with a big button.
The pattern is fully written and also has a chart for the lace and mock cable pattern.
