Watch a short video about the making of this poncho on my YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EG1RV_-j6Gg I hope you like it!

This fun color block poncho is a lovely, quick knit, a perfect stash buster, and a piece your child will love to wear. The Alice’s Bobble Poncho is a good project for bobble lovers and for those who want to learn them too! Feel free to customize this poncho by using as many or few colors desired.

This poncho is knit top-down using circular needles, in stockinette stitch with a few bobbles along the way to make it more fun. It features a folded hem, sewn at the end. You will use one strand of Hip Wool and one strand of Hip Mohair throughout the poncho.
