Raz, stands short for razzmatazz, an exciting and complex play intended to confuse an opponent. Hm, I certainly don't mean to confuse you but I do know this poncho will please you.
Raz knitted in two striking colors does makes an exiting accessory to have.
Easy to knit in all Garter stitches and just a few eyelets in the very top of your Raz. There is a bit of marling/blending the two complimentary colors into one, made easy by the Textured yarn cakes in a light fingering weight yarn without adding extra bulk.
A single seam will turn Raz into a poncho. No seam - then you can wear it as a shawl. There is enough yarn in your kit to increase the length...
