Materials Required
6 x 50g balls of Jo Sharp Mulberry Silk Georgette
(this garment was previously knitted using Jo Sharp’s Alpaca Silk Georgette which was 130m per 50g. The Poncho used 7 balls of this yarn, however only 6 balls of Mulberry Silk Georgette are required as this yarn is 165m per 50g) The resulting garment is lighter and softer than when knitted with Alpaca Silk Georgette.
