This light weight, beautiful “Neuf” poncho is a delight to knit with simple eyelets, stockinette and garter stitches. It’s knitted all in one piece, so finishing is at a minimum. Beginners, as well as seasoned knitters will enjoy this project.

When you use the yarns as shown here, the air just flows through the fabric with every move you make. It’s fabulous~
