Want to knit yours with the same yarn I did here? The knit kits are available at Yarnz2go.

This comfy poncho is another part of the Idris collection consisting of a sweater, poncho and hat/beanie. They not only have the yarn in common but also the fun and easy to knit fan like stitch pattern, which creates a delightful look. The kits are already all in the Yarnz2go shop.

The pattern is fully written and it’s a one size fits most. The neckline measures 21”, an 18” length and the bottom circumference measures 84”. It even has a side slit, giving you even more room.
