Fernweh Hooded Poncho

Discover the essence of wanderlust with the Fernweh Hooded Poncho, inspired by the German term "Fernweh," which translates to “an ache for distant places; missing places you’ve never been.” This beautifully designed poncho is the ultimate accessory for adventurers, perfect for quickly throwing over your shoulders as you head out the door to your next unforgettable journey.

The Fernweh Hooded Poncho is expertly crafted from the bottom front, featuring an innovative I-cord cast on for a polished finish. It seamlessly shapes over the shoulders using short rows and elegantly finishes down the back with an I-cord bind off. The side edges are adorned with integrated I-cord edging, adding to its sophisticated design. The cozy hood is thoughtfully added by picking up stitches around the neck, allowing you to knit flat before seaming at the top. For added versatility, an optional I-cord drawstring can be created and threaded through the front I-cord edging of the hood, giving you control over comfort and style.

This poncho allows for customization to achieve your preferred length, but please keep in mind that extra yarn may be required for your unique modifications. Whether you're embarking on a weekend getaway or simply enjoying a stroll in your neighborhood, the Fernweh Hooded Poncho will inspire your adventures with its comfort and contemporary flair.
