This poncho was designed keeping diversity in mind. I wanted to create a garment that could be worn as a casual, everyday piece as well as being dressy depending on the occasion and what you are wearing underneath. The seed stitch trim and optional cowl add to the quality of the design giving it a classy look. As a bonus, the poncho folds small, taking up minimal space making it a great travel piece.
Any DK weight fiber with a beautiful drape and great stitch definition will make an exquisite poncho you will be proud to wear.
Simply sophisticated!
