Baby 'Cabled Poncho'

Introducing the **Jessica Rose Hand Knits collection** by designer **Linda Whaley**—a must-have for little ones on chilly days! This popular **chunky knit cabled poncho** features a cozy hood, making it the perfect accessory to keep babies warm while adding a stylish touch to their wardrobe. The poncho is beautifully knitted in one piece, worked flat, and seamed, allowing for versatility with your choice of **long single-pointed needles** or **back-and-forth techniques on a fixed circular needle**.

This thoughtfully designed pattern offers detailed instructions to create the poncho in four sizes: **0-6 months, 6-12 months, 1-2 years**, and **2-3 years**. It’s an ideal project for both beginner and experienced knitters looking to create a functional yet fashionable garment for babies and young children.

The ease of slipping this poncho on and off makes it incredibly convenient for parents, especially when little ones are snoozing in their buggy or car seat.

Plus, if you prefer a longer poncho, simply knit the next size up to achieve that perfect fit.

For this adorable **Chunky Knit poncho**, you have the option to use **either one strand of Chunky yarn** or **two strands of DK yarn** worked on **6mm and 7mm needles**. This flexibility allows you to choose the materials that suit your style and preference while achieving that warm and cozy feel. Whether you’re creating a beautiful gift or a practical addition to your child's wardrobe, this pattern is sure to delight!
