Discover the stunning Lituma Poncho, a versatile knitting pattern worked seamlessly from the top down. This chic poncho features a generous turtleneck and beautifully incorporates a leaf motif lace paired with charming bobble details. Designed for both style and comfort, the pattern allows for ease of knitting, as the increases, decreases, and yarn overs for the lacework—as well as the delightful bobbles—are intricately crafted only on the odd rounds. This means every even round serves as a restful break, making it perfect for knitters of all skill levels.

Inclusive and user-friendly, the instructions for the Lituma Poncho are provided in both charted and written formats. You have the freedom to choose between a trendy modern poncho with sleeves or opt for a long, stylish sleeveless version to suit your personal taste.

The name Lituma pays homage to a beloved fictional character created by Nobel Prize-winning Peruvian author Mario Vargas Llosa. As the lead detective in several acclaimed novels, Lituma embodies the spirit of mystery and adventure, inspiring a knitting pattern that is both intriguing and captivating.
