2-Way Zig Zag Poncho 205
Discover the versatility of this delightful knit pattern, which can effortlessly be styled with zigzag stripes across or vertical stripes up and down! It's such a fun knit project that you can even experiment with an assortment of striped odd balls for a unique look! This pattern features a square shape that measures the same whether you wear it horizontally or vertically, making it a truly adaptable addition to your wardrobe.
As you assemble your stylish piece, be sure to sew the snap fasteners to each corner on the wrong side (WS) of the garment. This is crucial! Ensure that the “male” and “female” sides alternate so that the snaps can fasten perfectly in both directions for added functionality. You'll love how this small detail enhances the usability of your project.

MATERIALS: You will need approximately 700 meters / 765 yards of “self striping” or solid color yarn, worked in delightful random stripes. Choose from aran weight or thin chunky weight yarn—this design was beautifully shown in NORO Kureyon, color 325. In addition, gather a pair of needles sized 6 mm / US 10, or the size required to achieve the correct tension. Don’t forget to bring along 2 stitch markers, 2 extra-large snap fasteners, and a yarn needle to complete your project.
TENSION: Achieve your desired look with the tension of 16 stitches and 16 rows, equating to 10 cm / 4 inches over the Zig Zag pattern. This attention to tension will ensure that your finished garment retains its intended shape and drape.
