This is a great project to make for the special, young girl in your life. It’s quick, easy, and portable—a great summer project for on-the-go knitting. The poncho itself is very basic, just two rectangles sewn together. The Criss Cross Stitch pattern is what really makes it stand out. The stitch is easy to wrap, and the results are outstanding. The poncho will fit an 18” American Girl type doll.
