Wings

Introducing the Wings Poncho, the ultimate versatile outerwear piece for those chilly fall and spring days. When a sweater feels too warm or constrictive, this beautifully designed poncho offers the perfect solution. Crafted with fashion and comfort in mind, the Wings Poncho is worked from the top down in one seamless piece, making it an enjoyable and satisfying knitting project.

The knitting begins with a cast-on at the top of the stylish cowl neck collar. The collar is expertly worked in rounds, transitioning down to the neckline using a cozy 2x2 ribbing technique. To add an elegant touch and enhance the fit, short rows are skillfully incorporated after the ribbing, lowering the center front to beautifully shape the neckline. Continuing in the round, raglan increases are made throughout the yoke and extend into the body, ensuring a flattering silhouette. The addition of braided cables along the raglan seams not only breaks up the monotony of stockinette stitch but also gives the poncho its unique character and charm. Finally, short rows are again employed to shape the curved bottom hem, completing this stylish design.

The model depicted is wearing a size Medium, knitted in Trusty yarn from the Plucky Knitter in the delightful colorway “Ps & Qs.” With a range of sizes available from XS to XL, this poncho caters to various body types, making it an inclusive addition to any knitwear collection. The size chart includes Actual Bust measurements: XS (28-30"), S (32-34"), M (36-38"), L (40-42"), XL (44-46") or 71-76 cm (81.5-86.5, 91.5-96.5, 101.5-106.5, 112-117 cm).
