The Olivia Poncho is worked flat in a diamond pattern and assembled by folding and seaming along one side. The poncho is light and airy and works just as well layered over a thin sweater or shirt in winter as over a summer dress on cool summer evenings. The pattern includes both written instructions and a chart that is repeated throughout the piece.
