Lion Brand Construction Notes:

Poncho is worked in 2 pieces; a Front and a Back.

Back is worked in one piece beginning at lower edge.

Front begins at lower edge as 3 separate pieces; Left Front, Center Front, and Right Front. The 3 pieces are then joined, then the Front is worked in one piece to neck.

Stitches for turtleneck are picked up around the neck edge after shoulders are seamed. The turtleneck is worked in the round on double-pointed needles.

Construction schematics are provided.
