When you just need to snuggle…

Pluma is a super soft totally fluffy cotton yarn that has the look and feel of brushed suri. When I felt it I knew I needed it to be around my neck and face for when you need that extra bit of comfort.

Comfort Poncho is a simple design, worked first as a rectangle from the bottom up, which is then folded in half and partially seamed across the top with a 3 needle bind off. The rest of the stitches are then worked in the round to create a fluffy ribbed turtle neck.

If you are substituting yarns, be sure to check your gauge because Pluma had a different gauge than other worsted weight yarns (at least for me).

Sizes - S/M/L and XL/XXL. Because this is a loose fitting poncho, it will fit a variety of sizes.

Pluma - 50g, 142 yds, 85% cotton, 15% polyamide.
4 (5) balls.

Gauge - 16 st x 26 rows using 5mm needles in stocking stitch, after blocking.
